Shania Hayles

Hayles started for Jamaica in their friendly against France at Stade Auguste-Bonal in Montbéliard, but the Reggae Girlz suffered a 3-0 defeat to a strong Les Bleues side.

The Magpies forward - who netted a hat-trick against Charlton in United's last Barclays Women's Championship outing - played the first 70 minutes of the game before being replaced by former Newcastle forward Paige Bailey-Gayle.

Jamaica will also play two friendlies against South Africa later in the year, with Hayles also confirmed to be part of that squad. Summer signing Hayles, 24, now has 24 caps for her country.

Lois Joel

Defender Joel was an unused substitute for Wales as they secured their place in the Women's European Championship play-off final with a 2-0 victory over Slovakia on Tuesday night.

Rhian Wilkinson's side prevailed 3-2 on aggregate thanks to their extra-time win at the Cardiff City Stadium. They had been beaten 2-1 at NTC Poprad in the first leg, when Joel was also an unused substitute.

Joel made her senior debut for Wales against the Republic of Ireland in Dublin in February 2024, and has since won five caps in total for the Dragons.

Wales now face Ireland in November for a place in next summer's tournament in Switzerland.
