Four members of the Euros-winning England women's football team have been named on the King's first New Years Honours list.
The Lionesses' Dutch head coach Sarina Wiegman was made a CBE on the Overseas List.
The forward then finished as Ballon d'Or runner-up in October and last week was named BBC Sports Personality of the Year. She recently won the 100th England cap of a career that has included being named FIFA women's player of the year in 2020.
