Fast forward to this November and the soaring Seagulls forward has seen her impressive form for Brighton rewarded with her first senior England call-up. Katie Robinson will join England's camp this week ahead of the Lionesses' friendly games against Japan and NorwayCredit: Getty Robinson's club, who play West Ham today may not have had the best results in the league by their standards in recent weeks. Four defeats in five games – including a hefty 8-0 loss to Tottenham - has seen one of the top tier's most dogged sides drop to second from bottom. A start described as challenging by former Albion boss Hope Powell, 56, who stood down from her role this week after five years in charge. This summer Brighton also saw several experienced first-teamers depart. This includes seven players from the Seagulls side that ended Chelsea's 33-game unbeaten run in February 2021. But Robinson's energetic attacking displays have been among the bright spots for the Seagulls this term with the player netting once in five WSL appearances. Her efforts have seen her make the jump from England's Under-23s, with the forward named in Sarina Wiegman's squad before games against Japan and Norway this month. In September Robinson said: "There's more of an expectation of the (Under-23s) group with the senior side ahead of us being European Champions. "When we're in camps they would remind us of that. "At the camp (after the Euros) we were regularly reminded about the success of the seniors. "That's what everyone has got to be striving for. "We've got to make that gap between the Under-23s (and the senior) as small as possible so that when the transition is made for any player, it's not too much of a big one.'
