Since another major international tournament is approaching, one of the most fascinating discussions in football is approaching: the selection of the squads.
This summer will be important for Sarina Wiegman’s lion women to confirm on the big stage. England is the reigning European champion after her triumph in 2022 and was 2023 World Cup finalists against Spain, who were close to this occasion.
But after a few years after this agonizing night in Sydney in Sydney, England, the euro of this summer is going to prove with one point. They stay among the favorites to raise the trophy in Basel on July 25, but the competition was probably never stronger.
For this reason, it is important that Wiegman makes her choice of squad correctly – something that the Dutch has a strong track record. This year, however, there are many question marks, with some players at risk of missing injuries and several young talents on the edge of the team.
The flood seemed to be turning in the last international breaks of 2024 when Wiegman like Jess Naz, Laura Blindkilde Brown, Ruby Mace and Aggie Bever-Jones integrated into the senior team. Jess Park and Grace Clinton are a little further in their development, but it remains to be seen which aspiring Wiegman will put their tournament trust in the tournament in July.
Apart from that, the last international break indicated that Wiegman is not against calling the old guard. Nikita Parris earned a place in the squad for the first time in two years after he was a strong first half of the season in the first season with Brighton & Hove Albion. One player in an excellent club form, but still overlooked, is Tottenham’s Bethany England.
The 30-year-old achieves eight WSL goals this season and sets her level with Arsenals Alessia Russo, England’s undisputed start number 9. It is also worth mentioning that these eight goals for a spursed team have come outside of the elite and prove that they can perform without the service of a title-call team.
Her goal against Manchester City on Sunday certainly attracted Wiegman’s attention. With Spurs in the Brisbane Road, England’s excellent strike brought them to level before half -time, although they were beaten 2-1 after 90 minutes.
This goal has also rewritten the WSL record books because England was the first player to score more than 25 goals in the competition for two different clubs after scored large numbers at Chelsea.
In previous tournaments, Club Form England brought in a place in the squad, even if a backup player both in 2022 and 2023 and at least deserves the chance to prove himself during the upcoming games of the Nations League next month. Where it is in the English Hack order is all assumption, but one of the WSL’s in-form forests should not be overlooked.
England will need as much firepower as possible this summer at Euro 2025, and especially outside the bank, the difference between storing your title or waste could be.
England, based on the appearances this season, should be at the top of the conversation.
