With just two weeks to go until they kick off their World Cup campaign against Scotland, the England Women's squad welcomed the nation's press to their training camp at St. George's Park

McManus made 111 appearances for City and helped Neil Cushing's side lift two FA Cups, two Continental Cups as well as the FA Women's Super League title in 2016.

The 26-year-old, who made her international debut in February last year, will travel to the Women's World Cup with England this summer.
