Keira Barry receives first England call-up

Bay FC forward Keira Barry has been called up to the England squad for the first time following the withdrawal of Freya Godfrey.

The London City Lionesses striker has pulled out due to a shoulder injury paving the way for Barry's inclusion.

The 20-year-old joined the NWSL side from Manchester United earlier this season and has scored once in her four appearances so far having spent the first half of the season on loan at WSL 2 side Sunderland.

Meanwhile, Niamh Charles has also joined the squad. The Chelsea defender has recently returned following injury, playing in the Blues' last three games.

England will be in action next Tuesday when they host Spain before travelling to take on Iceland.
