Sarina Wiegman has named Lauren James in her 23-player squad for Euro 2025 as England attempt to defend their title in Switzerland next month.
Chelsea forward James has not featured for club or country since April after picking up a hamstring injury.
But the 23-year-old, who has scored seven goals in 27 appearances for England, is a key player and manager Wiegman is willing to take a risk on her fitness.
Teenager Michelle Agyemang is an exciting addition, included as one of seven forwards in the squad, despite making just one appearance for the senior team.
The Arsenal 19-year-old impressed with a stunning goal 41 seconds into her debut after coming on as a late substitute in a 3-2 defeat by Belgium in April.
England face world number 11 side France in their opening game on 5 July (20:00 BST) and also face 10th-ranked Netherlands and Wales in a tough group. The final will be held in Basel on 27 July.
