Manchester City midfielder Jess Park has departed England Women’s World Cup squad due to injury.
The 21-year-old was on the Lionesses’ stand-by list ahead of next month’s tournament in Australia and New Zealand but has withdrawn from the squad and will return to City for rehabilitation of her shoulder injury, the club have confirmed.
Former Manchester United and now-Aston Villa midfielder Lucy Staniforth has been called up to take the place of Park.
