England Women's head coach Sarina Wiegman has named her squad for friendly matches against Brazil and Australia at the end of the month, and has selected five of the six Chelsea players who featured at the European Championships, with Lauren James missing through injury.

The Lionesses will be back in action for the first time since beating Spain on penalties in Switzerland to lift the European Championship trophy this summer.

Manchester will host the first of the two friendlies, as England face Brazil at the Etihad Stadium, with kick-off scheduled for 5.30pm.

Wiegman will then take her side to Derby County's Pride Park, where the Lionesses will take on Australia on Tuesday 28 October at 7.30pm. That could see some of our Blues face each other, with Sam Kerr and Ellie Carpenter already having been called up by Australia boss Joe Montemurro.

We will have news of other Chelsea players receiving international call-ups in the coming days.
