Lionesses star Georgia Stanway leaves manager Sarina Wiegman stunned as she finds out about midfielder losing suitcase - with boots still inside - during live press conference

Friendlies

England

After playing for Bayern Munich in Germany, Stanway took a plane to the national team camp in Marbella. Unlike most of her teammates who arrived from England, she arrived without most of her possessions, including her football boots.The midfield player and manager Wiegman discussed the incident at a press conference on Thursday. Interestingly, Wiegman was unaware that Stanway had spent the previous two days training while wearing U-23 player Freya Gregory's boots.

WHAT HAPPENED?

As per <a href="https://twitter.com/KathrynBatte/status/1760794571682746765" target="_blank">Kathryn Batte of Mail Sport</a>, the conversation between Stanway and her coach went as follows:Stanway: At the moment I'm spending all my time trying to find my suitcase because it didn't turn up when I landed here on Monday. At the moment I'm just trying to locate where it is.Wiegman: You don't have your football stuff?Stanway: You don't know that story!Wiegman: If you need some stuff from me that's fine.Stanway: We had a little bit of a drama because it got left in Germany and I had nothing. But a U23 player, Freya [Gregory], I was able to wear her boots for the first two days.Wiegman: *gasps*Stanway: And then we sent Maria to the shop last night. But hopefully, my suitcase will turn up in the next few days. The biggest lesson I learned was to put your boots in your hand luggage.Wiegman: I thought you would have learned that a long time ago on the pathway!

WHAT STANWAY AND WIEGMAN SAID

The Lionesses have left behind the cold and rain at home and made their way to the south of Spain in preparation for warmer weather. As they get ready for the April Euro 2025 qualifying round, they have friendlies against Austria and Italy coming up.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Stanway and the Lionesses will be in action later today when they take on Austria in the first friendly of the break. They will then have a short turnaround before facing Italy on February 27.
