Town Women’s striker Princess Ademiluyi has been named in the England squad for the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup in Poland next month.

Ademiluyi, 20, who is on loan with Gotham FC until the end of the year, has previously won six U20 caps, scoring once.

The young Lionesses are in Group B alongside Brazil, Canada and Tanzania.

They open their games against the Canadians on Saturday 5th September, then face the Tanzanians the following Tuesday, before completing their group games against Brazil on the Friday.

The top two teams from each group progress to the last 16, along with the four best third-placed sides.

The competition is, however, under threat of a boycott from UEFA nations in the wake of FIFA president Gianni Infantino’s ill-fated FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE) proposal.

Hylton (Carolina Ascent), Vera Jones (Chelsea, on loan to Watford), Erica Meg Parkinson (North Carolina Courage), Princess Ademiluyi (Gotham FC, on loan to Ipswich Town), Lily Dent (Brighton & Hove Albion, on loan to Sunderland), Jessie Gale (Arsenal, on loan to Newcastle), Eva Hendle (Chelsea, on loan to Rangers), Eleanor Klinger (Stanford University), Lauryn Thompson (North Carolina Courage).
