England hero Alessia Russo takes a dip on Italian beach holiday as Man Utd star unwinds after epic Euro 2022 win | The Sun

ENGLAND hero Alessia Russo has been soaking up the sun in Italy as she continues to bask in her Euro 2022 heroics.

The 23-year-old hit four goals for the Lionesses on their way to European glory last month — including a superb backheel against Sweden.




Russo, who has been tipped to become the first £1million player in the women’s game, also came off the bench to play a key role in the victory over Germany at Wembley in the final.

And she even managed a sneaky peak at the opposition’s tactics during the emotional rollercoaster that ended in glory.

The Manchester United star, who has been included in the club’s new kit launch promos, is now taking a well-earned break from the pitch.

Striker Russo, wearing an orange bikini, was spotted taking a dip in the sea while on holiday with a pal and her family near Rome.

They had an umbrella and two sun lounges to share between them at Beach Lido in the seaside area of Nettuno.

And the bikini clad Russo spent most of her day lying and sitting in the sun before heading into the sea for around ten minutes around 5:30pm before returning to her lounger.

Fellow England heroes Ella Toone and Ellie Roebuck have also been spotted enjoying themselves in Ibiza as the post-Euros party continues.

The pair were pictured taking a dip on a luxury yacht near the island of Formentera, the smallest of Spain's Balearic Islands.

They went to a Calvin Harris gig the previous night on the Spanish island with other members of the team including captain Leah Williamson and Nikita Parris.
