PHIL NEVILLE has been boosted by the return of Steph Houghton and Jordan Nobbs for England Women’s forthcoming World Cup qualifiers against Wales and Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Manchester City defender Houghton and Arsenal midfielder Nobbs missed the recent SheBelieves Cup campaign in the United States through injury but are back in the squad for next month’s Group One matches.

England host Wales at Southampton’s St Mary’s Stadium on Friday April 6, before travelling to Zenica the following Tuesday.
