Aluko, has been called into England's final list of players for the
2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada.
The 28-year-old sister of Hull City forward, Sone Aluko, was named in
coach Mark Sampson's list on Monday.
She has played at every World Cup for England since her debut at the
2007 edition in China but has yet to score at the quadrennial event.
Aluko took to Instagram to express her delight at the selection. She
wrote, "Delighted to be selected for my 3rd Women's World Cup!!!
"So excited to get out to Canada now & hopefully do something special
in an England shirt. Let's go England #WWC #Canada."
England have not had it good at the world stage in women's football
having featured only made four appearances and only gotten to the
quarterfinal on three occasions – 1995, 2007 and 2011.
They will play in Group F against France, Colombia and Mexico. Their
coach however believes this year would be different.
He said, "It is tough to leave people out. The toughest thing I have
had to do in my career is to contact those who missed out, because it
has been a real group effort to get to this point."
