Sarina Wiegman CBE is widely regarded as one of the best coaches in women's football history. Her rise to the top of the coaching world began after a successful playing career and she has had an immense impact on the game as a player, coach and leader. Wiegman became the head coach of England in September 2021 and led the team to their first tournament success at the 2022 Euros: this was the first trophy for an English senior team of either gender since the men's team won the 1966 World Cup. Before coaching England, Wiegman was in charge of the women's Dutch team, leading them to their first major championship. She also coached the Netherlands to the final of the 2019 Women's World Cup and guided England to the final of the 2023 World Cup. In July 2025 she coached England to glory in the Euros in Switzerland, becoming the first person ever to coach a national football team of any gender to five consecutive major tournament finals.
