Chelsea Women's international call-ups and schedules for April 2026

Here's the list of international call-ups for Chelsea Women players representing their respective nations over the international break in early April...

The Women's European Qualifiers kicked off in March, and sides in League A will compete for one of four direct spots at the 2027 Women's World Cup in Brazil.

There will then be a further seven places up for grabs via the play-offs, which will be held between 24 June and 5 December, and one final spot available via the inter-confederation play-offs in February 2027.

Blues stars Ellie Carpenter and Sam Kerr have already helped Australia to claim their place at the World Cup as the Matildas' route to qualification was via the Asian Cup, where they reached the final in March.

Chelsea have representatives playing for several of the European sides bidding for qualification for the tournament during April, and you can see who has been called up for the second round of fixtures below.

We will be updating this article as further international squad announcements are made.

All times are GMT.

England

The Lionesses will continue their FIFA World Cup 2027 campaign by facing Spain at Wembley Stadium before travelling to Reykjavík to take on Iceland in Group A3.

Sarina Wiegman's side won their opening two qualifying matches last month, beating Ukraine 6-1 in Turkiye, before recording a 2-0 win over Iceland at Nottingham Forest's City Ground.

Lucy Bronze, Hannah Hampton, Lauren James and Keira Walsh have been called up to the 23-player squad once more, having featured heavily for the Lionesses under Wiegman.

Niamh Charles is one of those usually included in England squads but misses out, having only just returned to action at club level, while Aggie Beever-Jones is also ruled out through injury.

Scotland vice-captain Erin Cuthbert got off to a flying start with her side in their first two World Cup qualifiers, defeating Luxembourg 5-0 away from home, before returning to Hampden Park to beat the same opponent by a 7-0 scoreline in March.

Those results saw them top Group B4 on goal difference, and this time around, they face two consecutive matches against Belgium, who also gained six points from their opening fixtures and currently occupy second place.
