Monday's briefing: Euro 2025 glory for England as Diaz nears Liverpool departure
After the game Lucy Bronze revealed the extraordinary lengths she had gone to in helping the team win a second major trophy under Sarina Wiegman, who herself has now won three European titles in a row. Away from the tournament, Luis Diaz is on his way out of Liverpool while new signing Viktor Gyokeres has joined up with Arsenal. England secured their Euro 2025 crown in a fashion in keeping with their performances throughout the entire tournament. After needing to recover from an opening loss to France just to make it out of the group stage, and then play 120 minutes against both Sweden and Italy to reach the final, England again came from behind on the night and went the distance as Alessia Russo cancelled out Mariona Caldentey's opener. After seeing goalkeeper Hannah Hampton make two key saves before Kelly's winning spot-kick, Wiegman called it 'the most chaotic and ridiculous tournament we have played' as the never-say-die attitude of her players again shone through. Captain Leah Williamson said: 'It's just total disbelief, but at the same time I knew it was going to happen. Playing for this England team is unbelievable. You just cannot put us down and it's such an amazing feeling to be a part of.' After Sunday's final England defender Bronze revealed she had played the whole of the tournament with a fractured tibia. The 33-year-old full-back had played every minute of Euro 2025 until she succumbed to a separate knee injury at half-time of extra time in Basel. 'I've actually played the whole tournament with a fractured tibia, but no one knew. And now I've hurt my knee on the other leg,' Bronze said on BBC Sport. Speaking after Bronze came through the quarter-final penalty shoot-out win over Sweden, Wiegman had said of Bronze: 'I think the only way to get her off the pitch is in the wheelchair' and we can now see what she meant. Luis Diaz is on his way out of Liverpool after the club agreed a £66million deal with Bayern Munich. The agreement comes after the Bundesliga champions were understood to have reopened dialogue regarding a move after having an initial offer of £59m dismissed last week. Liverpool are currently on their pre-season tour in Asia and Diaz was still with the team when they arrived in Tokyo on Sunday, but now has permission to leave. The 28-year-old has two years left on his original contract and it is understood the Reds accepted the bid for what they consider to be his market value. Great to have you with us, Viktor 👊 — Arsenal (@Arsenal) July 27, 2025 New signing Viktor Gyokeres watched on as Arsenal beat Newcastle 3-2 in their pre-season meeting in Singapore on Sunday. The 27-year-old striker completed his £55m move from Sporting Lisbon to the Gunners on Saturday and was presented to fans at the National Stadium before kick-off a day later. He saw Arsenal come from behind to beat the Magpies, with Martin Odegaard getting the winner from the penalty spot in the 84th minute. Arsenal are back in pre-season action against rivals Tottenham on Thursday, while Newcastle face an all-star K League side on Wednesday.
