How to buy England home, away and goalkeeper shirts for Lionesses at Euro 2025
Euro 2022 champions England will defend their title in Switzerland this summer, with Sarina Wiegman's Lionesses getting their campaign underway against France on July 5 England will go into the 2025 Women's European Championships as holders, and they'll be hoping a new kit can become immortalised in another title win. The Lionesses kick off their campaign against France on July 5, before facing the Netherlands and Wales in their other group games. Sarina Wiegman's team have already worn the home kit, giving it a first airing in a 6-0 thumping of Portugal in the UEFA Nations League at the end of May. And now fans can get their own hands on it. The Euro 2025 kits have been manufactured by Nike, and feature twists on traditional designs. The home kit is white, as usual, but with a red and blue print across the chest as well as blue on the sleeves and collar. England's away kit is black, and with flashes of colour on the side. The new goalkeeper kit is green, in a change from the previous orange effort, and has a subtle vertical stripe pattern. "To be a Lioness is to be more than an athlete. It's about respecting tradition while challenging the status quo to build a bright tomorrow," manufacturers Nike say about the kit, which is inspired in part by England kits of years past. That first outing for the new kit couldn't have gone much better. It was a dream evening for striker Aggie Beever-Jones, too, with the youngster bagging a hat-trick on her first Wembley start for her country. "As cliche as it sounds, Sarina literally said it's a new kit, new England today, go out there and put a graft in, basically,' Beever-Jones said after the win. 'I think her words were 'destroy them', in her Dutch accent." England's new Euro 2025 kits are made from Nike's Dri-FIT ADV material, which helps take sweat away from the body "for quicker evaporation". The goal of this is to keep those wearing the kits both drier and more comfortable. In addition to ensuring breathability, Nike have also emphasised the sustainability of the kit. The home and away kits, as well as the goalkeeper kit, are made using sustainable materials - with the shirt and shorts made of at least 80 per cent recycled material as Nike aim to reduce fabric waste and take care over the impact they are making on the planet. England will take to the field in their new kits during this summer's Euros in Switzerland, with their first group game taking place on July 5. You can get your hands on the kits even sooner, though, with all kits available in 'stadium' and 'match kit' formats. All kits are available in kids and little kids sizes as well as a variety of adult sizes. Adult shirts are on sale from £84.99 from a variety of outlets, and you can buy your own via the link below.

Alessia Russo's feelings as England Lionesses star's brother enters Love Island
Alessia Russo is set to lead the line for England in the upcoming Women's European Championships but her brother - once a budding footballer himself - faces a different summer As Arsenal and England star Alessia Russo prepares to lead her country's charge at the upcoming European Championships, her brother faces a rather different summer. While Alessia is in Switzerland with the Lionesses, Gio Russo will be on Love Island. Gio (short for Giorgio) was once a budding footballer himself, playing for a number of non-league clubs, and has a big interest in sport himself. However, as the reality show star explained, his sister is also a Love Island fan. "She's really excited, she watches every year and reckons I can do well so she's excited to see how I get on," Gio told ITV. With Gio looking for love, he has also outlined the need for any potential partner to be into sport. "My sister plays pro football, so being interested in sport, they don't have to know football or understand it, but if they can show some sort of interest because it is such a prominent thing in our family," he said. "It would be hard if they hated it. "Other green flags are having a nice family, I'm sick of being the 7th wheel in my own family!" added Gio ahead of his late addition to the show, which began on June 9. The timing of the reality show meand Gio could miss a great deal of Alessia's involvement at the Euros. England begin their campaign against France on July 5, with The Netherlands and Wales rounding off the group. England and France were also paired together in qualifying, with Alessia scoring for Sarina Wiegman's team during a victory in Saint-Etienne. The Arsenal star scored four times for the Lionesses as they won the Euros on home soil in 2022, and was England's top scorer in qualifying for the 2025 tournament with three. Wiegman's team have a farewell friendly on Sunday, at home to Jamaica at the King Power Stadium. Alessia Russo scored in England's most recent game, a UEFA Nations League match away to Spain, though that ended in a narrow 2-1 defeat. Gio, isn't the only islander with football connections. Dejon Noel-Williams, son of former Watford striker Gifton and a Grenada international footballer in his own right, is also part of the line-up. "I've met all kinds of famous people through him," said Dejon, who works as a personal trainer and semi-pro footballer. "When I was younger it was weird because he was just my dad, but we'd go to a game and fans were asking for photos. I've met David Beckham, he was really nice."
