Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman has named her squad for her side’s upcoming friendly games against China and Ghana.
England play China in the first game of the upcoming international break on November 29 at Wembley before taking the Black Queens at St Mary’s Park on December 2.
London City Lionesses’ Freya Godfrey has been called up for the first time after netting her first two goals of the season against Tottenham earlier this month. She is in the senior squad for the first time after being a regular for the Under-23s national side.
There are returns to the England squad for Man City duo Lauren Hemp and Grace Clinton after injury – but Lauren James and Jess Carter have not been selected to monitor their fitness.
James is just returning from injury so will stay with Chelsea during the international break, while Carter has been given some time off after the end of the NWSL season.
Michelle Agyemang, Alex Greenwood, Hannah Hampton and Leah Williamson are all missing with injury.
In terms of the goalkeeper position, Sophie Baggaley has been named as the goalkeeper option to compete with Khiara Keating and Anna Moorhouse. All three goalkeepers have just one Lionesses cap between them.
Anouk Denton, Grace Fisk, Taylor Hinds and Lucia Kendall all remain with the Lionesses after getting call-ups in the October camp.
