Northumberland's Lucy Bronze selected for England's Euro 2025 squad

The 33-year-old Chelsea full back was named in a 23-player squad by Lionesses manager Sarina Wiegman.

She was a key part of the England squad that won the Euros in 2022 and lost in the 2023 World Cup final. She has 133 caps for her country.

Bronze was born in Berwick and spent her early childhood on Holy Island and Belford.

She went to Belford First School and Duchess's Community High School in Alnwick, and has played for both Alnwick Town and Blyth Town at youth level.

She has already won every domestic honour in England during spells at Sunderland, Liverpool, Everton, and Manchester City, and has also played for Lyon in France and Barcelona in Spain.

Earlier this year she was named an Honorary Freewoman of the County of Northumberland “in recognition of her services to football”.
