The England Lionesses are gaining momentum for the Women’s Euros, with Lauren James set to make her return. The forward, sidelined since April with a hamstring injury, could play a substitute role in Sunday’s friendly against Jamaica, providing a valuable warm-up opportunity to regain match sharpness.
Teammate Jess Carter noted James’s renewed energy and sharpness, describing her as “a new player.” This fresh perspective on her game indicates a positive transformation during her recovery period.
Coach Sarina Wiegman is cautiously managing her minutes to ensure she’s fully prepared for the challenges of the tournament in Switzerland. The Lionesses will be eager to see James back on the pitch, contributing to their attacking prowess.
