The Chelsea midfielder is eyeing up the game's biggest prize next year

With five league titles, two Champions Leagues and a host of domestic cup winners' medals in her collection, Chelsea midfielder Keira Walsh has won just about everything there is to win in women's football.
This success also extends to the international scene, where the 29-year-old was part of England's two European Championship successes in 2022 and 2025.
However, there is one notable trophy missing from her CV - the World Cup.
Walsh played both legs of England's 8-1 aggregate win over Greece, which secured their place in the two-legged World Cup play-off against Ukraine in November, the winner of which will seal their place in Brazil for next summer's tournament.
This play-off run has come after Spain pipped the Lionesses to top spot in their qualifying group on goal difference, underlining just had challenging even making the finals is.
"The same way we'd approach any game," Walsh told FourFourTwo about the team's play-off test.
"It’s difficult to qualify now in the initial stages because there’s two or three top teams in each group, so it's really, really difficult."
