Summary at a Glance

Nikita Parris has been included in the England squad for the first time in two years, while Chloe Kelly has been left out by Sarina Wiegman for the Nations League games against Portugal and Spain.

Meanwhile, Chloe Kelly, who scored the winner in the final of the Euros, has been omitted after only starting one game this season for Manchester City, prompting her deadline-day loan to Arsenal in January to keep her Euro 2025 ambitions alive.

It is exciting that we have the chance to write a new chapter in our story in the months ahead, especially with the Euro this summer, but we will focus first on what is right in front of us and a very important Nations League campaign,” Wiegman said.

Parris has scored nine goals in 19 games across all competitions this season following her move from Manchester United to Brighton in the summer in search of regular game time.

The Lionesses play Portugal in the Algarve next on 21 February to kickstart their Nations League campaign before they welcome World Cup holders Spain to Wembley on 26 February.
