England news: Football legend Fran Kirby retires from international football ahead of England’s Euros title defence

Football legend, Francesca Kirby, has closed the curtains on an illustrious international career for England.

Fran Kirby’s announcement comes not even a week after another announcement shocked the football world - Mary Earp’s own retirement from international football.

The Brighton midfielder made the shock announcement ahead of England's Euro 2025 campaign, and before Sarina Wiegman could even name her squad for the tournament - the 23 players will be revealed on Thursday, June 5.
