Southampton FC Women will have six players representing their countries during an important final international break of the year.

Saints’ stars will represent both England and Wales during the next fortnight, with potential debuts and tournament qualification on the line.

Rachel Rowe and Alice Griffiths have kept their places in the Wales squad for their date with destiny, as they face Republic or Ireland in the Women's European Championships qualification play-off final.

Cymru will host the first leg in Cardiff before travelling to Dublin for the deciding game in their bid to reach a major tournament for the first time in their history.

Meanwhile, four of Remi Allen's squad have been called up to England’s Under-23s this month as Kayla Rendell was forced to withdraw through injury.

Fran Stenson, Tara Bourne, and Lucia Kendall all kept their places, whilst Megan Collett’s impressive performances have earned her a first-ever call-up to the U23s age group.
