Elin Rubensson is back in the football national team ahead of the decisive matches against France and England when the European Championship qualifying rounds conclude in July.

National team captain Peter Gerhardsson has selected a larger squad than usual, including Häcken's 17-year-old talent Felicia Schröder.

Due to the threat of suspensions and the fact that football seasons around the world are in different phases, national team captain Peter Gerhardsson chose to select 27 players instead of 23 for the European Championship qualifying matches against France and England in July.

Elin Rubensson, who left Häcken to play in Houston in the American league NWSL in the spring, is back in the team after being absent from the last gathering. Häcken's 17-year-old offensive talent Felicia Schröder and 22-year-old Evelyn Ijeh, Milan, are two future names in the squad, which includes four goalkeepers.

We will announce at some point that a goalkeeper will not be travelling (to France), says Peter Gerhardsson at a press conference.

After four out of six matches in the European Championship qualifying rounds, Sweden is on seven points, just like reigning European champions England. France tops the qualifying group with nine points.

The two top teams are directly qualified for the championship in Switzerland next summer. The third and fourth teams will play off.

Sweden meets France in Dijon on 12 July and faces England in Gothenburg four days later.
