Rhian Wilkinson says Wales want to play “the best of the best” as they prepare for a first major tournament appearance.

Wilkinson’s side will find out their opponents at the 2025 European Championships, to be held in Switzerland, when the draw is made at 17:00 GMT on Monday, 16 December. It is available to watch on BBC Two, iPlayer and the BBC Sport website.

The head coach says Wales do not care who they are grouped with and will not be despondent if they draw one of the main candidates to win the tournament, such as defending champions England, World Cup winners Spain, or Olympic champions Germany.

“I’m in a perfect situation, which is that I don’t care and I think that is the gift of it, being our first opportunity we get to walk into this experience fearless,” Wilkinson told BBC Sport Wales.

“There are not many people that expect much from us, the people that expect the most are ourselves.

“And so would we like to face the best? Why wouldn’t we?

“There was an off-hand comment about the Nations League A draw, someone said, ‘I’m sure Wales are pleased they didn’t get England’.

“I would’ve loved England. I mean why wouldn’t I want the Spains, the Englands, Germanys? These are the top, top level of the women’s game.”
