Ella Toone has been called up to the England team after having initially been left out of Sarina Wiegman's selection.
The Manchester United midfielder was a surprise exclusion alongside Arsenal's Chloe Kelly for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Greece.
Toone had expressed her disappointment in missing out on the England squad but is now linking back up with the Lionesses after Lucy Bronze dropped out. Bronze picked up a minor injury while playing with Chelsea last weekend with the Blues enjoying a comfortable 3-0 win away to West Ham United.
England will face Greece in Crete on Friday evening before then hosting their opponents the following Tuesday in Leicester.
