England Women World Cup squad – Sarina Wiegman announced her 23-player squad
Sarina Wiegman announced her 23-player Lionesses squad on Wednesday, which features defender Millie Bright, despite her lack of game time for Chelsea since sustaining an injury on 22nd March. Notably, Steph Houghton has been overlooked despite captain Leah Williamson’s absence, and Maya Le Tissier has also been surprisingly left out.
Furthermore, Nikita Parris, Le Tissier’s Manchester United teammate, did not make the final selection, while their club-mate Katie Zelem secured a place in the squad.
