England WAGs Opt for Private Security, Raising Eyebrows

This summer’s England WAGs (wives and girlfriends) are planning to break with tradition by arranging their own private security for the Euros in Germany. Led by seasoned tournament attendees Fern Maguire and Megan Pickford (partners of Harry Maguire and Jordan Pickford), the group is reportedly prepared to spend a significant sum – upwards of $126,000 – to ensure their safety throughout the competition.

This decision stems from concerns about the FA’s (Football Association) security measures, which some WAGs found overly restrictive during the 2022 World Cup. Partners of players like Bukayo Saka (Tolami Benson) and Jack Grealish (Sasha Atwood) are also said to be on board with the plan.

According to reports, the WAGs are looking to hire ex-military specialists trained to handle various security threats. Their goal is to achieve a balance between feeling safe and maintaining a degree of freedom during their stay in Germany. The cost for this private security detail is estimated to start at £65,000 ($82,000) for the initial stages, potentially exceeding £100,000 ($126,000) if England progresses deep into the tournament.

This move by the WAGs might not sit well with England manager Gareth Southgate. He has consistently emphasized the importance of minimizing distractions for his players, and the media frenzy surrounding the WAGs in 2006 (think Victoria Beckham) is a scenario he likely wants to avoid. With England aiming to end their 58-year trophy drought, Southgate will be hoping the focus remains on the pitch as their Euros campaign kicks off against Serbia on June 16th.
