As the nation welcomes home the Lionesses after their monumental World Cup performance, Madame Tussauds London today announces that one of the team is to be immortalised at the world-famous attraction. But they need the nation to help choose which member of the inspirational squad will be honoured at the iconic Baker Street attraction.
As the reigning European Champions return home to a heroine’s welcome, fans will have the chance to decide if it’s; Mary Earps and her golden goal saving gloves, Chloe Kelly and her golden boot, Millie Bright captain of the history making side, Leah Williamson who captained the team to Euro’s victory, Alex Greenwood who heroically played on in the final post injury, Lucy Bronze voted ‘Star Player’ of the UEFA European Women’s Championship 2022, London Football Awards Women’s Young Player of the Year Lauren James or Head Coach Sarina Wiegman, who took them all the way to the final.
Tim Waters, General Manager at Madame Tussauds London, said: “Like the rest of the nation we’re incredibly proud of the Lionesses. Not only for their success at the FIFA Women’s World Cup this year, but for their momentous win in Europe last year and all they have done for their sport -bringing women’s football roaring into the mainstream. They inspire and encourage so many, and we feel it’s only right what they have achieved is commemorated so we’re going to do that in the way that only Madame Tussauds London can.”
“The whole team have been outstanding, and they all brought so much to the World Cup, which makes it really difficult for us to pick who our expert artists should create. That’s why we’re putting it to the public, to help us decide who we should choose!”
Fans should head to Madame Tussauds London’s website – bit.ly/47BLe9T – to cast their vote, the poll will go live on Tuesday 22nd August and run until Friday 8th September, with the results announced in the coming year.
