Huge artwork of Wales legend Jess Fishlock unveiled

A huge artwork of Wales midfielder Jess Fishlock has been unveiled.

The tribute, which covers the size of a five-a-side football pitch is located in Cardiff, where she was born.

Fishlock is her country's record-breaking goal scorer and most capped player, and the mural celebrates her impact on football, equality and representation.

It's thought to be the first time that a female footballer in Europe has been recognised in this way.

What has been unveiled?

Fishlock's mural was designed by artist Regan Gilflin and brought to life by the Welsh creative studio Unify.

Children from local schools in Cardiff were invited to attend the unveiling.

Fishlock was born in Cardiff and has previously said she developed her love for football as a child playing at a soccer camp in the city she took part in over her summer holidays.

The Seattle Reign FC player - who has 162 caps and 47 international goals to her name - has been called a footballing "icon" by Wales boss Rhian Wilkinson.

Euro 2025, which kicks off next month, marks the first time the Wales women's team has qualified for a major tournament.

Who is Jess Fishlock?

Jess' career has seen her play all over the world, and she's also used her experience to coach football teams too.

She made her Wales debut at 16 years old and has played more than 160 times for her country.

In 2018, she was given a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) award for services to women's football and the LGBT community.

If Fishlock scores during Euro 2025 she will set a new record as the oldest goal scorer in the history of the women's competition, at 38 years old.
