Man City midfielder Laura Coombs has said she was "surprised" to get an England recall after over seven years spent in international exile.
Coombs, 32, won both of her previous caps in October 2015, last turning out for the Lionesses in a win over Australia under Mark Sampson. But Sarina Wiegman has brought her back into the fold ahead of the 2023 Arnold Clark Cup, with Coombs rewarded for a strong run of form at club level with Man City.
England begin their defence of the tournament they won last year when they face South Korea in Milton Keynes on Thursday, with games against Italy and Belgium to follow. Coombs will be hoping to add to her two caps over the next week but admitted she was in shock to hear she had received a call-up last week.
