The 20-year-old has scored 11 goals in 15 Women’s Super League (WSL) games for Emma Hayes’s Blues so far this season.

Sarina Wiegman has now named a 24-player squad for home and away Euro 2025 qualifiers against France in May and June, as well as July’s qualifiers against the Republic of Ireland and Sweden.

Maya Le Tissier, Missy Bo Kearns, Jess Naz and goalkeeper Kayla Rendell have been named on standby.

There is a first call-up for Chelsea defender Millie Bright since October, after five months out with a knee injury.

The Lionesses face the French at Newcastle’s St James’ Park on May 31 and again in Saint-Etienne on June 4.

The same squad will then reconvene for three separate training camps at St George’s Park ahead of facing the Republic of Ireland at Norwich’s Carrow Road on July 12 and Sweden in Gothenburg on July 16.
