England call up Kelly, Parker to replace injured Arsenal duo

LONDON: Forward Chloe Kelly and defender Lucy Parker have joined the England squad for this month’s Women’s Nations League matches, replacing injured Arsenal players Beth Mead and Lotte Wubben-Moy, the English FA said on Monday.

Kelly, who was left out when coach Sarina Wiegman announced the squad last week, featured for Arsenal in Sunday’s 5-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur in the Women’s Super League, her first game back at her old club on loan from Manchester City.

Arsenal manager Renee Slegers said Wubben-Moy had a muscle injury, while Mead was an unused substitute on Sunday.

Parker, who has made 11 WSL appearances for Aston Villa this season, is yet to make her international debut. Agencies
