Millie Bright believes she is close to reaching the peak of her powers with Chelsea flying high in the WSL and a Women's World Cup on the horizon next summer.
The centre-half was one of England 's most consistent players last summer during the Lionesses' run to European Championship glory. And with another major tournament not too far away Bright, who played more minutes than anyone else in the WSL in 2022, believes she is now close to playing her best football for both club and country.
Bright, 29, is expected to play a key role next summer when Sarina Wiegman aims to win back-to-back major tournaments for the first time in England's history. But it hasn't always been easy for her in an England shirt, Bright had to recover from World Cup heartbreak at the last finals in 2019, when she was sent off during a semi-final exit against USA.
