“No changes from the squad we had last weekend,” Slegers said.

“Chloe Kelly won’t be available tomorrow. She’s progressing, she’s making steps, but too early tomorrow.”

Asked if she could rotate her squad following Sunday’s semi-final, Slegers said: “I think that’s why we built the squad and full trust in the squad that when these short turnarounds, when they come, everybody’s ready, and I think we’ve had a lot of players involved lately, whether that’s the start or finish, and that’s one of our big strengths in the squad, and that’s the way we want to work.

“So we’ll have players ready for tomorrow. We’re in the here and now, it’s about tomorrow, we have a very important game against Leicester, so that’s what we’re focused on.”
