England boss Sarina Wiegman has revealed she is monitoring Everton defender Gabby George "very closely" despite failing to name her in the squad for the Lionesses' upcoming games in the Arnold Clark Cup.
George has been a standout performer for Brian Sorensen's side this season and was named the WSL Player of the Month for January after a string of impressive displays at left-back. The defender, who joined Everton in 2014, has notched a goal and two assists in 12 league appearances so far this term and has also shown her versatility by playing at centre-back for the Blues.
However, her impressive form has not been enough to earn her a place on the roster for England's games against Belgium, Italy and South Korea later this month, with Wiegman claiming other defenders had "won the competition" to feature in her 26-player squad.
