Arsenal ‘legend’ Beth Mead to leave club at end of season

Advertisements

She suffered a serious knee injury when she ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament in November 2022 and was forced to miss the 2023 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

The 2022 BBC Sports Personality of the Year returned after 11 months out and was part of the England squad as the Lionesses retained their European title at Euro 2025.

Mead came on as a substitute in her side’s Champions League final against Barcelona last season and, in one of her “greatest highlights in an Arsenal shirt”, set up the winner for Stina Blackstenius as Arsenal won the title for the first time in 18 years.

This season, she has made 27 appearances in the WSL and Champions League, with 11 of those as a substitute, and scored five goals.

Arsenal have also announced Victoria Pelova, who joined them from Ajax in January 2023, will be leaving the club at the end of the season.

The midfielder has made 87 appearances for the Gunners, scoring six goals.
