Women's April 2024 International Guide
Southampton FC Women have six first team players in action during the final international break of the season.
Qualification for the 2025 Women's European Championships begins this month, with news that Kayla Rendell has been drafted into England's senior squad for the first time.
It's an achievement for both Rendell and Saints, as she becomes the first player for the club to be called-up to the senior Lionesses side by Sarina Wiegman.
She will be involved as England face Sweden and the Republic of Ireland in EUROs qualification.
Two more of Saints' stars will be hoping to reach next summer's competition in Switzerland.
Laura Rafferty keeps her spot in the Northern Ireland squad after captaining them during the last international break in the UEFA Women's Nations League play-offs.
Also in qualifying action will be Alice Griffiths, who maintains her selection in the Wales squad.
Rafferty led out her country as captain in February.
Both Northern Ireland and Wales face a lengthy process to reach the EUROs in 2025, as they sit in League B of the qualification format and will need to finish as high as possible in their respective groups to advance to the play-offs for the final tournament.
Elsewhere, Saints' trio of England Under-23s internationals are selected once again, as they will be in friendly action at AFC Telford's New Bucks Head ground.
Ella Morris, Lucia Kendall, and Molly Pike will face Sweden, with tickets available to support the Young Lionesses on Thursday.
