Sarina Wiegman has made some late, strategic adjustments to her England squad ahead of two massive FIFA Women's World Cup 2027 qualifiers this month. The Lionesses' boss has handed call-ups to forward Keira Barry and defender Niamh Charles, adding fresh options as the team prepares to face world champions Spain and a tough Iceland side.

The changes come after forward Freya Godfrey was forced to withdraw from the squad due to a shoulder injury. Barry, who plays for Bay FC, steps in to replace her, earning her first-ever senior call-up—a huge milestone for the young attacker who has progressed through England's youth ranks. To further bolster the defensive line, Wiegman has also recalled Chelsea's Niamh Charles, a seasoned campaigner who was part of the squad that clinched the UEFA Women's EURO title last summer.

With the Adobe Women's FA Cup now concluded, the squad is assembling at St. George's Park to begin their final preparations. The upcoming double-header is crucial: first, a blockbuster clash against reigning world champions Spain at a sold-out Wembley on April 14th, followed by a trip to face Iceland in Reykjavik on April 18th. England currently sit perfect in their qualifying group with two wins from two, and these new additions will be looking to help maintain that flawless record against the highest-caliber opposition.
