FOUR Saints Women players have been called up to the England under-23 squad for a warm-weather training camp in Spain.
Goalkeeper Kayla Rendell, defender Ella Morris, and midfielders Lucia Kendall and Molly Pike have all been selected for the 24-player squad heading to Marbella.
Emma Coates' side will face Spain on Thursday, February 22 before coming up against Netherlands on Monday, February 26.
The young Lionesses will also join up with the senior squad during the February camp offering the Saints stars a great chance to enjoy some valuable experience.
England under-23 manager, Coates said: "We’re looking forward to getting everyone together for our first camp of 2024.
"Having the opportunity to travel to Spain and test ourselves against two quality European opponents is the ideal way to start the year.
“It will be a brilliant experience for our Young Lionesses to share a camp with the seniors, giving them a taste of what could lie ahead in their futures.
“A camp of this nature also shows how connected the England pathway is, as we aim to prepare more Young Lionesses for our senior team.”
