Keira Barry gets first call-up and Niamh Charles also joins England squad | OneFootball

The Bay FC forward Keira Barry has received her first senior England call-up after being added to Sarina Wiegman’s squad for Women’s World Cup qualifiers against Spain and Iceland alongside the fit-again Chelsea full-back Niamh Charles.

Their additions come after the London City Lionesses forward Freya Godfrey withdrew because of a shoulder injury. Barry, promoted for the Under-23s squad, is a product of Manchester United’s academy and also played for clubs including Crystal Palace and Sunderland before signing for Bay FC in February.

The 20-year-old has played four NWSL games, scoring against North Carolina Courage in March.

The England squad meets at St George’s Park on Tuesday to begin preparations to host the world champions, Spain, at Wembley on 14 April. They play Iceland in Reykjavik four days later.
