Jordan Nobbs called up to England squad as Fran Kirby replacement for Arnold Clark Cup

Jordan Nobbs has been called up to the England squad for the upcoming Arnold Clark Cup tournament following Fran Kirby 's injury.

The former Arsenal star, who completed the switch to Aston Villa last month in search of more regular game time, missed out on a spot in Sarina Wiegman 's initial squad which was announced earlier this week. However, a recent injury to Chelsea star Kirby means the 30-year-old will now be a part of the squad for the tournament.

The Lionesses are reigning champions in the Arnold Clark Cup after they won the inaugural tournament last year. They begin their defence on Thursday evening against Korea Republic at Stadium MK in Milton Keynes.
