Mary Fowler makes a stunning confession about how close she came to quitting soccer altogether

Matildas and Manchester City star Mary Fowler has revealed how close she came to walking away from football after intense pressure as a teenager made her fall out of love with the game. Fowler, 22, who debuted for the Australian national team at just 15 years of age, said if she hadn't found success so early on in life she might have 'done something else'. 'Football at times wasn't the most enjoyable experience to me because I was just so immersed in it,' she said in an interview series with the Commonwealth Bank. 'If a game didn't go well or if I missed a shot on goal that I should have scored, it was the biggest deal. 'Like, oh, you don't deserve your opportunities or you're a bad person. 'I think if I hadn't gone to the national team that soon, maybe I would have done something else.' Currently recovering from an ACL injury in England, Fowler also spoke about her recovery process. 'I have recently made a conscious effort to think that I don't have like a bad knee that needs to be fixed, but I'm getting an upgrade and I'm getting an even better knee,' she said. 'I have heard that a lot of girls when they come back … it can be up to a year to feel like probably normal again. 'I feel like 90 per cent of that is going to be a mental block and so it's something that I've thought about and been like, why don't I just start changing how I think about it now already?' Earlier this month, Fowler revealed her long-term plans with NRL beau Nathan Cleary - and they include babies, adoption, and a life surrounded by animals on a rural property. Despite being more than 17,000km away from home - and with no plans to play in Australia again 'any time soon, if ever' - Fowler says she's already looking ahead to a quieter life with the Penrith Panthers halfback. 'I really want to have a big family,' she told the Keegan and Company podcast. 'The only dream I have at the moment is to be a mum and have heaps of kids and be in a space where they can play outside a lot.' The Matildas forward has revealed her long-term plans with Nathan Cleary (pictured together) - and they include babies, adoption, and a life surrounded by animals on a rural property Not content with just a picket fence and a swing set, she is thinking big - envisioning a home where her future children can get their hands dirty in the veggie patch, feed farm animals, and 'run wild in the mud.' 'If I had the set-up for that, it would be a dream,' she added. Fowler - who hails from Cairns and is sister to siblings Caoimhin, Seamus, Ciara and Louise - said she sees a similar-sized family in her own future. 'I would love to have two or three kids of my own and then adopt,' she revealed.

Arsenal handed Viktor Gyokeres transfer boost as fresh offer revealed

Arsenal are yet to make their first signing of the summer transfer window but it could potentially be a very exciting week for the Gunners with a number of deals in the pipeline Arsenal have had a very quiet summer transfer window so far - but it might not stay that way for long. Mikel Arteta is chasing a number of signings as he attempts to cut the gap to Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table. A move for Martin Zubimendi is all-but done and he is expected to be followed by compatriot Kepa Arrizabalaga, who will arrive from Chelsea. A striker is also on the shortlist for the Gunners, with both Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko both candidates to arrive at the Emirates. ‌ Valencia star Cristhian Mosquera has also emerged as a major target over the coming days and work looks set to continue on deal for the Spanish starlet. ‌ There could also be some major exits over the coming weeks, too, with a few sales earmarked before the end of the window. With that being said, take a look at the latest transfer news and rumours from the Emirates Stadium: Sporting chiefs offers Gyokeres update Sporting Lisbon president Federico Varandas has admitted that Viktor Gyokeres could leave the club this summer for less than his release clause. "Sporting is calm regarding this matter," Varandas said."Secondly, Sporting does not need to sell Viktor Gyökeres. Fortunately, we have moved past the phase of selling our main asset. "However, we remain sensitive to Viktor's dreams or those of any other athlete. Sporting has made a commitment that, after weeks of meetings, we will not demand the full amount of the clause; we will be reasonable regarding the amount requested for Viktor. "Today, there is a strong likelihood that he will leave. I won't disclose the amount, but the player knows what it is. I can say that Viktor will not leave for 60+10m. He won't leave, absolutely not. "In recent weeks, we have been paying attention. I saw a player, Zubimendi, who is six months younger than Viktor, go for 65 million, and I saw Matheus Cunha move to Manchester United for around 75 million euros. We are talking about players who are 26 years old. I believe Viktor could leave, unless he has the worst agent in the world, which I don't believe, as his agent is one of the best in the world." ‌ Berta leading Mosquera talks Arsenal chief Andrea Berta will consider upping his side's bid for Valencia star Cristhian Mosquera after seeing their first offer turned down. According to Spanish outlet Super Deporte, Arsenal's opening offer was in the €15m (£12.8m) region. That was not enough to convince the La Liga side to sell. However, it is suggested that around €20-25m, with €3-5m in add-ons could be enough to get a deal done. ‌ Mosquera remains out of contract next summer. He has recently been playing for Spain at the under-21 Euros. Arsenal to battle United Arsenal will reportedly go head to head with Manchester United for the signing of Roma star Evan N'Dicka. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Frenchman is available this summer. It is suggested that Roma want to receive around £30m for N'Dicka so they avoid a punishment for breaching spending rules. There is further interest however, with Newcastle also keeping an eye on developments.

Tomos Williams ruled out of Lions tour in major setback

Elsewhere in the backline, Farrell reprises the wing combination of Tommy Freeman and Duhan van der Merwe, who started in the 28-24 loss to Argentina. In the centres, Ireland's Bundee Aki partners Huw Jones who makes his first start of the tour. In the front row, there are first starts for Andrew Porter, Ronan Kelleher and Will Stuart with Itoje partnering Ollie Chessum in an all English second row partnership. Jack Conan makes his first start in an athletic back row with Morgan and Curry. There are five English players on the bench - Luke Cowan-Dickie, Ellis Genge, Ben Earl, Alex Mitchell and Fin Smith - alongside three Irish players in Finlay Bealham, Garry Ringrose and James Ryan who could make his first appearance of the tour. It means the only players not to have featured so far are White and Blair Kinghorn, who won the Top 14 with Toulouse on Saturday and is joining the squad later on Monday. The Reds are set to provide a sterner examination of Farrell's side as they approach the three-Test series against Australia which begins on 19 July. 'We know each game on this Tour will be a step up from the game before and three more players are set to make their Lions debuts on Wednesday night, so congratulations to those guys,' Farrell said. Meanwhile, the Wallabies have released prop Taniela Tupou to join up with the New South Wales Waratahs who face the Lions on Saturday, indicating that the tighthead, nicknamed the Tongan Thor, is unlikely to be a part of Joe Schmidt's side for the Test series.
