Leah Williamson Returns to Lionesses Squad for Upcoming Friendlies

After a 10-month absence due to a serious knee injury, England captain Leah Williamson is back in the squad for matches against Austria and Italy.

Leah Williamson has been named in the England squad for the first time since suffering a knee injury in April last year, missing the Women's World Cup.
The Lionesses are set to face Austria and Italy in friendlies as part of a warm-weather training camp in Spain, marking the start of their Euro 2025 qualifying campaign.
Millie Bright, Williamson's centre-back partner, remains sidelined with a knee injury, while Jess Park returns to the squad for the first time since October.
England manager Sarina Wiegman emphasizes the importance of the upcoming camp in Spain for team bonding and preparation for a crucial year ahead.
The Lionesses aim to build momentum after missing out on the Nations League finals and Paris Olympics qualification on goal difference.
