Beth Mead, Mary Earps ruled out of England's She Believes Cup defence

Beth Mead suffered an injury while playing for Arsenal last week.

Arsenal striker Beth Mead has been left out of England Women's squad for the She Believes Cup through injury.

The forward was forced off during her club's 3-2 win over Liverpool on Thursday and will not join Phil Neville's side in America for next month's tournament.

Manchester United goalkeeper Mary Earps also misses out on the 23-player squad, while the Lionesses boss hands call-ups to two uncapped players.
