Wales defender Mayzee Davies says missing out on Euro 2025 — Wales' first appearance at a major women's football tournament — due to a serious knee injury has given her extra motivation heading into the World Cup play-offs, according to BBC Sport.
Davies suffered the injury ahead of the tournament, forcing her to watch from the sidelines as Wales competed on the major international stage for the first time in the women's game. According to the report, she has described the experience as a source of added determination rather than discouragement as she now looks toward qualification for the World Cup.
The World Cup play-offs represent another high-stakes opportunity for Wales to reach a major tournament, and Davies's return to full fitness is likely to be viewed as a boost for the squad's defensive options. Further details on Davies's recovery timeline and current fitness were not included in the available report.
