England Under-17 squad named for double header

England WU17 head coach Kerri Welsh has selected a 24-player squad to travel to Finland for two internationals.

The Young Lionesses will be back in action to kick off their 2026-27 season with matches against the 2027 UEFA WU17 EURO hosts on Thursday 10 September (16:30 BST) and Sunday 13 September (12:00 BST). The Finland fixtures will serve as important preparation for the squad as they prepare for round one of qualification for next summer’s finals, with three qualifying games against Belarus, Hungary and Denmark scheduled to be played in December.

Kerri Welsh said: “We are really excited to get the new season underway and bring the group together for the first time in what we hope will be an exciting year ahead for us. There is a lot of young talent in this squad, and it will be great to get them some important minutes on the pitch as we prepare for our EURO qualifiers.

“We know facing Finland will be a tough challenge for us, and as hosts of the 2027 EURO, it’s particularly exciting to play them. These fixtures provide us with the chance to test ourselves against different opposition and see where we are as a group at this early stage in the season.”
