England Euro 2025 Euro 2025 Squad: Lauren James in the name of Sarina Wiegman names the team of 23 players | Football news
Lauren James was appointed to the England women’s team for Euro 2025 while Sarina Wiegman announced her team of 23 players for the next tournament.
The Chelsea winger has been sidelined since April with an injury to the hamstrings, and was hit to do the team for this summer competition in Switzerland.
Wiegman had been positive when he was rehabilitated when he was asked during the recent Nations League campaign, and this optimism was justified because James is included in his team.
The boss of England said about James: “It is not a risk. We have time, we have another month. She trains very well in her club. She is to the point that we hope that she would be at this stage.
“She continues to progress and I hope that when we go to the camp, she can train with us and continue to progress in the first match on July 5.”
There is also an inclusion for Arsenal Forward, 19, Michelle Agyemangwho only made his international debut until April. She scored a sensational objective during a 3-2 defeat against Belgium in the League of Nations and her work was rewarded by a first international tournament.
“I think it brings something different,” Wiegman said about the teenager, who impressed Brighton during the 202425 season.
“We are really strong in advance, we have different qualities with the players we have chosen. She brings so much physics and we all remember her first goal for us against Belgium. It’s good to have in the team!”
However, there is no place for the Aston Villa midfielder Missy Bo KearnsWho made his own senior beginnings against Spain on Tuesday. Brighton Nikita Parris Also abandoned the team that appeared in the League of Nations.
But Kearns is one of the rescue players in England, alongside Sphate (Brighton), Laura Blindkilde Brown (Man City) and his Villa teammate Lucy Parker.
The team will meet in St George’s Park to start their preparations in euros on Monday June 16. Rescue players will stay with the team until they leave for Switzerland on Monday, June 30, the day after the friendly lionesses against Jamaica at King Power Stadium.
The three players based in the United States in the team – Anna Moorhouse, Jess Carter and Esme Morgan – will join the team on Monday, June 23 after the continuation of its interior season.
It had already been revealed before the tournament that three players would not be in the team. Mary Earps And Fran Kirby Both announced their international retirement, while Millie Bright retired from the line to focus on your health and mental well-being.

Five fields of a risky Wiegman game

Analysis of Sky Sports Charlotte Marsh:
“There are few surprises in the Sarina Wiegman team – the League of Nations gives us an idea of who could be included – but it is slightly the rise in eyebrows that only five recognized fields are appointed among the 23
“Wiegman likes to play in a 4-3-3, with Keira Walsh the starter nailed among the five. Georgia Stanway only returned to the action in the League of Nations match after a knee operation in January.
“She has only played 60 minutes of football since December, all coming to the last two games in England, but is one of the only other fields deeply in the team. It will see it with a better cry from Switzerland.
“Grace Clinton suffered in role n ° 8 in the absence of Stanway – also impressive – but it is more comfortable as n ° 10.
“But Jess Park and Ella Toone too. It will be a battle between the trio for this place, although Clinton can have a better chance of starting a more defensive midfielder.
“Only five fields in the field also raise the question of dreaded injuries – what are the other options if one or two of them take blows?
“Wiegman herself said in her press conference after the cancellation that among the team is enough depth in his midfielder, only that players must be classified on paper.
“James’ return can also play as No. 10, although an interrogation point remains on his own physical form.
Georgia Stanway returned to the starting starting lionesses against Spain
“Leah Williamson has also been deployed in the midfielder before. There are a number of other options to the central defender if necessary, but given the recent recent form of Williamson in Defense, Wiegman can be reluctant to move it for an entire match.
“While five fields are a risky game, each player has a real quality – three of them have won Euro 2022.
“And although Clinton and Park appear during their first major tournaments, do not expect to overwhelm them. They have the talent of being entrances and will give others a race for their money.”
