England's national women's soccer team is gearing up to defend their European Championship title, having won last summer. A significant boost comes with the return of Lauren Hemp, who has been sidelined due to a knee injury since November. Her recovery is crucial as she's seen as a key player, especially after having impressed during the 2023 World Cup. Manchester City's interim manager Nick Cushing confirmed Hemp will join the squad for the upcoming Women's Super League match against Leicester City, intensifying her team's Champions League ambitions as they aim for a top-three finish in the league.
Lauren Hemp has been out since November due to a knee injury but is ready to make her return, boosting England's hopes for the upcoming European Championships.
Cushing emphasized Hemp's return was crucial for England's campaign this summer, as she was a standout performer at the 2023 World Cup and pivotal in the 2022 Euros.
Hemp's recovery is vital; she's trained with the squad but didnât have enough full training to play immediately, though her eagerness is palpable.
City's focus is on securing a Women's Champions League spot, and Hemp's availability adds depth to a team currently in fourth place, trailing Manchester United.
