Aston Villa and England goalkeeper Hannah Hampton have released a statement after she was dropped by club and country over ‘posture issues’ – claiming she is currently suffering from a medical problem.
Hampton was left out of Aston Villa’s squad this weekend for their Chelsea visit, with manager Carla Ward instructing the player to stay home after ‘something happened yesterday’ – saying it was ‘in the best interests of the team’.
The Lionesses’ boss, Sarina Wiegman, declined to comment on the goalkeeper’s situation on Tuesday, but revealed that she had not spoken to her in the past two months and that she still had to resolve the issues that were the reason for her absence from the game. September.

Now Hampton has clarified the situation on social media, writing: “I’ve been suffering from an ongoing medical problem for a while now and it’s time to get it right this week with a minor procedure.
“I’ve been out for a few weeks now while I recover with the support of everyone at the club. My priority now is to get fit again, get back on the pitch and give everything for the team. UTV!’
The statement puts an end to Hampton’s silence about the speculation surrounding her stance, but provides little clarity on how or why the situation developed.
Earlier on Tuesday, Wiegman left the door ajar on a possible return to the Lionesses roster after news she had been ousted by the national team.

“I have not spoken to her myself, we have made a plan, she is at the club, she will take care of that,” said Wiegman. “We support and that’s where we are now.
“It’s the same reason I said in September, nothing has changed. That’s basically what it is.
‘She still has to’ [sort things out]it’s something personal that I don’t want to go into further.’
Meanwhile, Wiegman was also asked about Steph Houghton’s situation, as she is still locked out by the Dutch.

Wiegman still thinks Houghton has work to do to force her way back into the squad.
‘I had a conversation with her. I don’t think she’s ready to compete or ready for us in the squad right now, which she clearly wants,” Wiegman said.
“She also really needs minutes to show and get consistency. We’ll see how it goes. I can’t see into the future, I think at the moment it’s very difficult to have the team now, the players she’s fighting with and also now as you’ve seen we have young players coming in and it’s very good too to do. That’s the situation for her right now.’
