England Women's National Team Captain, Leah Williamson, is set to return to the squad after recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury that kept her out of action for almost a year. Manager Sarina Wiegman has included Williamson in the group for upcoming fixtures against Austria and Italy later this month.
The 26-year-old defender suffered the ACL injury in April of last year, which sidelined her for a lengthy nine-month period. Although she recently made a comeback for her club Arsenal, Williamson is yet to complete a full 90 minutes on the field. Her return to the England squad marks her first appearance since she led the team to victory in the Women's Finalissima trophy back in April 2023.
