Finders keepers - FA will '100%' reject any offers for Wiegman amid US vacancy

After USA were eliminated at the last-16 stage, American fans and journalists have argued that US Soccer should go all out to recruit Wiegman to replace Vlatko Andonovski, who resigned this week.

"We've seen lots of rumours, and look, she is a special talent. We know that," said Bullingham. "From our side, she's contracted through until 2025. We think she's doing a great job.

"We're huge supporters of her and hopefully she feels the same way. So she's someone we'd like to have with us for a very long time."

Asked whether that was the case at any cost, Bullingham said: "It is not about money. We are very, very happy with her and we feel she is happy. I think that is the answer."
