With the next FIFA Women’s World Cup not until 2027 and the next Olympic Games not until 2028 – a lot can happen in the meantime.
“We have to play at our club. We have to play well and stay injury-free. There might be a few more babies maybe. I don’t know. Four [and five] years is a long time but I hope the core group is still together,” Sam told reporters ahead of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup third-place play-off match against Sweden.
However, Sam hopes to retain some of the core members returning in 2027 and 2028.
“I hope to be here. I am only 29. I think most of us will still be here if we have the opportunity,” she said at the time.
“Of course, there will be people who come into the side and take someone’s position and people that might not want to keep playing but at the moment I haven’t heard talks of anyone retiring [apart from Lydia Williams].”
