Sarina Wiegman is not for sale at any price, the Football Association’s chief executive, Mark Bullingham, has said, with praise flooding in for the England head coach as she prepares for her fifth major-tournament final in a row.

The Dutchwoman, whose England side will try to defend their European title when they meet the world champions, Spain, in Basel on Sunday, is under contract until after the 2027 Women’s World Cup. She won the 2017 Euros with her homeland and led the Netherlands to the 2019 World Cup final, before taking charge of the Lionesses. On Thursday, Bullingham said the FA would not entertain any approaches for her services.
