Ella Toone added to England squad after Bronze withdraws

Manchester United midfielder Ella Toone has received a late call‑up to the England squad for the upcoming World Cup play‑off games against Greece. The move follows the withdrawal of Lucy Bronze from the squad.

Toone, who has been a regular in United’s midfield, was named to replace Bronze as England readies for the decisive fixtures this month.

Her inclusion adds depth to England’s midfield options, giving the coaching staff additional flexibility ahead of the play‑offs.

The call‑up comes at a critical time, as England seeks to secure a place in the next World Cup through these high‑stakes matches.

With the play‑offs scheduled for this month, Toone will need to integrate quickly into the squad and be ready to contribute to England’s campaign for a World Cup berth.
