CARRIE Jones and Ceri Holland will both be on the plane for Wales following the announcement of the 23 player UEFA Women's EURO 2025 finals in Switzerland.
Newtown raised Norrkoping midfielder Jones and Liverpool winger Holland, who qualifies for Wales via her Llanrhaeadr-born mother, will both be looking to make history for Wales.
Wales will face the winners of the last two Euro tournaments in England and the Netherlands as well as France who reached the semi-finals in 2017.
The two top placed sides in the group will then progress to the quarter final stage.

More than 2,000 Welsh fans will be in the Red Wall for each match, with Wales Cymru due to be one of the best supported sides in Switzerland in terms of attendance.
