England eLions squad for the 2023-24 season
Lisa Manley has become our first eLioness and joins some familiar faces in our squad
England Gaming has announced its 2023-24 squad, with four of last season’s eLions returning and an exciting new addition.
Manchester City’s Donovan ‘Tekkz’ Hunt, Hashtag United/Tottenham’s Tom Leese, Crystal Palace’s Jacob ‘Niksneb’ Benskin and Team FUTWIZ/Real Sporting de Gijón’s Ethan ‘EthxnH’ Higgins all return to the England squad.
This is following impressive seasons which saw Tom reach the final of the ePremier League, Niksneb and EthxnH reach the final of the FIFAe Club World Cup and Tekkz make the final of the EA Sports Cup, plus back-to-back FIFAe World Cup and Club World Cup majors.

This season England Gaming will also be joined by our first ever eLioness, Lisa Manley.
A former football player for Fulham FC Women, Lisa makes history by becoming England’s first female EA Sports FC pro player to represent at national level.
Coaching the squad this season once again is Manchester City coach Zac Moore, who has a strong record of reaching finals and helping players improve and understand the mechanics of the game resulting in success on the virtual pitch.Tekkz & Grealish v Tom & Saka

Successful qualification will then lead eight European nations to the live finals in July 2024 at a venue in either London or Germany.
