Carrie Jones, a 21-year-old Welsh midfielder currently playing for IFK Norrkoping, is a versatile player with four seasons in the WSL and six years with the national team under her belt. Salma Paralluelo, a 21-year-old Spanish midfielder playing for Barcelona, is a physical winger who boasts multiple domestic and international titles. Wieke Kaptein, a 19-year-old Dutch midfielder playing for Chelsea, has quickly become a first-team regular and was identified as one of the unsung heroes of the Blues' invincible WSL season. Franziska Kett, a 20-year-old German defender playing for Bayern Munich, is set to play in her first major tournament. Sydney Schertenleib, an 18-year-old Swiss midfielder playing for Barcelona, has quickly established herself as a first-team regular.
