Four members of our women’s team have been included in the England under-20s squad for a preparation camp.
Cecily Wellesley-Smith, Laila Harbert, Jessie Gale and Vivienne Lia are all part of the young Lionesses team heading to Atlanta, USA.
That’s where they will be building towards September’s FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup.
Wellesley-Smith and Lia are currently out on loan at FC Rosengard and Hammarby respectively until December.
Harbert spent time on loan at Portland Thorns and Everton last season, while Gale featured on loan at Portsmouth and Bristol City.
