City stalwart, Esme Morgan, has fought for her way back into the England squad after missing out on the European tournament on home turf, last summer, due to injury. The 22-year-old has four senior caps to her name under Sarina Wiegman’s wing but nearly missed out on her call-up to the World Cup in the summer due to a delivery.
She told Sky Sports: “I actually missed the first one [call]. I was just about to go on holiday so I had a last-minute Zara delivery come in, so I went to the door to collect the delivery, came back and checked my phone and I had a missed call from Sarina and Arjan the assistant manager and I was like ‘oh no!’
“Literally a second later they called again and I was like thank goodness [she said] I’m so sorry I missed it, I was just getting my delivery’.
