Lionesses icon Fara Williams admits she never thought the women’s game would get the attention it has received as the Women’s Super League prepares to roar back into action.
Crowds are expected to swell this season after Sarina Wiegman’s side ended their wait for a major trophy under the Wembley arch last month. It is certainly a landmark moment for the women’s game having never been in a better position to capitalise on the growing interest.
Despite having only retired from the game last after a spell with Reading, Williams has admitted that she could only ever "dream" of the current interest and "never" thought it would come to fruition.
