Women’s World Cup qualifying: Brazil in Wales’ sights – Angharad James

James has not played since the Switzerland win because Seattle Reign’s National Women’s Soccer League campaign ended in November, although she was involved in pre-season before joining up with Wales last week.

James also struggled for game-time after returning to her club following Euro 2025.

Even so, the 31-year-old says she is in a good place as she prepares to win her 140th cap.

“I worked so hard in the off-season to make sure that I’m ready for Wales and Wales always comes first in my eyes,” James said.

“So if I knew that I had to be ready for this game, I’ll make sure that I am at the best I can be for this game.”

When asked about her lack of minutes for Reign in the autumn, James added: “I think there’d be something wrong if I didn’t think about it.

“Do I want to play more football? Of course I do. And am I going to push to play more this year? Yeah, I am.

“So I’m in a good place and hopefully I can go back and hit the ground running after two games here with Wales.”
