Ella Toone and Aggie Beever-Jones have earned recalls to England's World Cup qualifying squad for the decisive June matches against Spain and Ukraine. Toone returns after a four-month knee injury layoff, featuring for Manchester United in their final two games of the season. Manager Sarina Wiegman confirmed the midfielder is progressing well but decisions on starting roles remain pending.

England sits three points clear atop Group A3, with a June 5 clash against Spain in Majorca likely determining automatic qualification for next summer's World Cup in Brazil. A win would secure their place, while second place enters the playoffs. The Lionesses previously defeated the world champions at Wembley in April, adding extra significance to the upcoming fixture.

Chelsea striker Beever-Jones rejoins the squad after missing April's camp through injury, alongside newcomer Freya Godfrey from London City Lionesses. The forward netted six WSL goals this season but is yet to earn her senior cap. Meanwhile, Beth Mead's World Cup prospects depend on securing regular playing time following her Arsenal departure, with Manchester City showing interest.

Everton's Ruby Mace misses out again despite strong performances, as Wiegman cited positional competition and squad depth. Eighteen-year-old Erica Meg Parkinson also drops out after her surprise call-up in April, remaining with the U20 World Cup squad to gain further experience.
