Beth Mead has extended her contract with Arsenal. The 27-year-old has been with Arsenal since 2017 after signing from Sunderland, but has taken her game to a new level in the past couple of years.
She enjoyed a formidable 2021/22 season scoring 14 goals and grabbing 19 assists before going on to play a key part in England's EURO 2022 success where she scored six times and grabbed fives assists in order to claim the Golden Boot and player of the tournament. This was then capped off by a nomination for the Ballon d'Or where she finished second only to Barcelona's Alexia Putellas.
She looked to be set to continue that fine form after scoring five goals and grabbing a further five assists in just nine appearances, before an ACL injury last month cut her momentum short. Despite that Arsenal have been keen to move to secure the future of one of football's best players right now and are overjoyed to have tied her down to a new deal.
