Veteran midfielder to be rested
32 year old Jill Scott has withdrawn from the England squad with a view to be fit enough to feature in this years Women’s World Cup. This is the England’s second withdrawal after Millie Bright.
The squad for SheBelieves cup was announced recently and it also features some of Scott’s teammates at City and having her as part of the team in the summer would be good for the team’s chemistry.
As a result, Orlando Pride forward Chioma Ubogagu who was originally left out, is set to replace Scott in England’s 23-woman squad.
