We kept it to football.”When quizzed if the same applied to Toone, the Dutch coach replied: “Yes.”She added: “The levels were not what I expected from them on the pitch. I’ve had a conversation with them, and there’s a big competition going on too.“That has been a very hard decision for both of them. I really believe in them. They’re not in the squad but I still believe in them.

Because I’m convinced that they can do better and I think they are convinced about that too. “I think they took the feedback well, in a positive way. But it’s hard to take at the same time, of course, it’s not a nice message.“I hope they’ll respond on it really well. That’s what I want too. I hope they come back even better than they were before.”Kelly’s last omission from the England squad was in February 2025 following a lack of game time for her former club Manchester City, having joined Arsenal on loan a month earlier.Wiegman gave a similar reason at the time, saying: “She hasn’t played enough.Toone scored twice in six appearances for England in their victorious Euro 2025 campaignGetty“She’s moved clubs now, but last autumn she hardly played and had built some credit. But over that time she’s played fewer minutes.” Kelly and Toone aren’t the only big-name omissions from the Lionesses squad, with two other Euro 2025 winners also left out.Chelsea forward Aggie Beever-Jones and Arsenal’s Lotte Wubben-Moy have not made the 23-player squad, while Taylor Hinds is also not included.Captain Leah Williamson returns having missed June’s 4-0 defeat by Spain and 3-0 win over Ukraine.
