"My mum saw it and asked, are you working for Rhian? She got me in trouble," Fishlock said."
"I can't say, but we had a brief conversation about me being involved and what it would look like - I just didn't realise it would go public. But we have had conversations, we are on the same page, just fleshing out the details."
"I would love to stay involved in some capacity; it wasn't a clean break - I still text the girls all the time. But we will just wait and see," Fishlock told BBC Sport."
Jess Fishlock is fleshing out details of a potential role with Wales following retirement from international football. A brief conversation has occurred with Wales boss Rhian Wilkinson about involvement and what the role might look like. Fishlock's phone blew up after Wilkinson's comments and her mother discovered the news via media, prompting a telling off. Fishlock is Wales' record appearance maker and goalscorer with 166 senior caps and 48 goals and stepped away after Euro 2025 following a farewell friendly against Australia. Fishlock remains open to involvement in 2027 World Cup qualifying but has not committed to playing. She played 18 times for Seattle Reign and helped them reach the NWSL play-offs.
