Manager has called for changes to the international calendarStanway says lack of summer break creates ‘potential burnout’
Sarina Wiegman has said England are having to work hard to find the right balance between taking care of players and performing at the highest level with the international calendar not set to change until 2026.
“We can’t change it,” she said. “So, you’re trying to do the best to take care of the players and at the same time perform to the highest level and take out the highest risks of getting injured, in collaboration with clubs. The clubs and we as the FA don’t have any control over the calendar.”
