Michelle Agyemang, who was carried off on a stretcher with what appeared to be a knee injury during England’s 3-0 win against Australia, is “not very positive,” according to England manager Sarina Wiegman.

Agyemang, 19, left Pride Park on crutches just 13 minutes after being substituted for Chloe Kelly in the second half for an off-the-ball injury.

Wiegman stated in her post-game press conference that she was concerned about the injury but had not received any confirmation.

She said, “Of course, it was an awful moment, and it doesn’t look good.” “We don’t know yet, but what I saw is not very positive,” he said.

Wiegman’s statements to the media, according to former Arsenal defender Jen Beattie, were unfavorable.

The manager will always be the first to receive a few nods from the medical team, according to Sarina’s comments. On BBC Radio 5 Live, Beattie stated, “I think her entire demeanor spoke volumes.”

“I just hope she’s okay, I don’t want to speculate.”

Agyemang, who is currently on loan from Arsenal to Brighton, played a significant part in the Lionesses’ victory at Euro 2025.

England jumped out to victory in the quarter-final against Sweden and the semi-final against Italy thanks to goals from the bench.

Her exploits in Switzerland earned her the Kopa Trophy, the highest distinction given to the best under-21 female footballer in the world.
