WSL assist queen Mead completes Man City switch

Syndicated reporting provided by Stats Perform and reviewed by the SoccerNews editorial team.

Beth Mead has joined Women’s Super League champions Manchester City on a free transfer.

The England international left Arsenal at the end of the 2025-26 season.

Mead played 167 WSL games for the Gunners, which ranks as the fourth-most for the club in the competition.

Her tally of 104 WSL goal involvements for Arsenal trails only Vivianne Miedema (115), while Mead holds the record in the top flight for assists, with 54.

The 31-year-old failed to agree fresh terms with Arsenal, however, and she has now penned a three-year deal with City.

“I’m very proud to be here. Obviously, City had an amazing season last year and I am excited to start a new chapter here,” Mead told City’s club media.

“I think the way City play suits me really well, and I feel like it can get something extra out of my game.

“Speaking to the manager, I think it was a place where I think I can really fit into, help and bring a different dynamic to the team, so it was a no-brainer for me.”

Mead ranks fifth in the all-time WSL goals charts, with 72.

City’s director of football Therese Sjogran said: “Beth’s achievements in the game speak for themselves, so we’re delighted to bring her to the club.

“She’s shown what it takes to consistently perform on the kind of big stages we want to regularly be competing at, so she’ll be a brilliant addition to our already impressive squad of players.”
