England Women: Chloe Kelly and Fran Kirby ruled out as Sarina Wiegman names first squad since Euro 2022 win | Football News
England will be without Chloe Kelly and Fran Kirby for the upcoming World Cup Qualifiers against Austria and Luxembourg due to injury, while Lauren James, Katie Zelem, Jordan Nobbs, Sandy MacIver and Ebony Salmon have all been called up to the squad.
Two other notable absentees from Sarina Wiegman’s 23-player squad are Jill Scott and Ellen White after the experienced duo this week announced their retirement from football following the Euro 2022 triumph in July.
European champions England need a point away to nearest group rivals Austria on September 3 or, failing that, a victory at home to Luxembourg three days later to book their place at the World Cup finals in Australia and New Zealand next summer.
England Women squad
Earps, MacIver, Roebuck, Bright, Bronze, Carter, Daly, Greenwood, Stokes, Williamson, Wubben-Moy, Nobbs, Stanway, Toone, Walsh, Zelem, England, Hemp, James, Mead, Parris, Russo, Salmon.
