Bethany Jane Mead (born 9 May 1995) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for Arsenal and the England national team. She previously played for Sunderland.

Mead was twice named England's Young Player of the Year (2015, 2018) and was a finalist for England Player of the Year in 2019. She won the FA WSL Player of the Year in 2015 and was nominated for the FA WSL Player of the Season in 2021–22. She won Arsenal Player of the Season Award in 2021–22 by a landslide. At UEFA Women's Euro 2022, she won the Golden Boot, Player of the Tournament, and Top Assist Provider, helping England win the major football tournament for the first time.

Mead won the FA WSL Golden Boot in 2015. Converted to a winger at Arsenal, she holds various assists and chance creation records for the WSL, including all-time most assists, most assists in a season, and most chances created in a season. She provided most assists in the WSL for 2018–19 and 2021–22; 2nd most in 2020–21.

Mead won the 2018–19 FA WSL title with Arsenal and the 2015 FA WSL title with Sunderland. She helped England reach the semi-final at the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, providing 2nd most assists in the tournament. In 2021-22, she scored 20 goals and assisted 17 in 19 games for her country, breaking the 61-years-old record of most goals for England in a season (by male or female), previously held by Jimmy Greaves (13) in 1960-61.

Club career

Sunderland, 2011–17

Mead celebrating Sunderland's promotion to WSL1 in 2014

Mead began her youth career at California Girls FC before joining Middlesbrough F.C. Centre of Excellence at age 10 before moving at age 16 to Sunderland, then in the FA Women's Premier League. In her first season she scored 23 goals in as many games, and ended the season with 29 in all competitions, followed by 30 goals in 28 matches the following season, and 15 in the 2014 FA WSL2 season. Sunderland won WSL2 in 2014 and gained promotion to WSL1 for the 2015 season. Although Mead turned professional upon Sunderland's promotion, she resolved to finish her final year at University.

In her first match at the top level, Mead scored in Sunderland's shock 2–1 win over reigning champions Liverpool. On 19 July 2015, Mead scored a hat-trick against league leaders Chelsea, making her the league-leading scorer with eight goals. Earlier that week, Mead avoided injury despite rolling her car three times while trying to avoid a deer. The following week, she scored twice in a 4–1 win at Bristol, sending Sunderland to the top of the WSL 1. She ended the 2015 season as leading goalscorer in the WSL1 with 12 goals in 14 appearances.

Arsenal, 2017–

On 24 January 2017, it was announced that Arsenal Ladies had signed Mead on an undisclosed-length full-time deal. At Arsenal, summer 2017 signing Vivianne Miedema soon occupied the centre-forward berth, so Mead had to play as a winger instead: "I'd played No 9 all my career until I came to Arsenal. I was a bit annoyed that I wasn’t playing No 9, because I thought that was my best position. But now I really enjoy playing on the wing. I can get involved, run at people, bring other people into play." Arsenal won the 2017–18 FA WSL Continental Tyres Cup with Mead scoring in the knockout rounds against her former club Sunderland in the Quarter Final and against Reading in the semi final. Mead finished the 2017–18 season as Arsenal's top goalscorer in the league with 8 goals and was voted Arsenal's player of the season. Despite this, Arsenal missed out on qualification to the 2018–19 Champions League. On missing out on Champions League qualification, Mead said, "It’s a bit frustrating, we had a few results this season where we slipped up and that was our fault. That took it out of our own hands today and Manchester City deserved to finish above us in the end."

Mead with Arsenal in 2018.

By the 2018–19 season, Mead had fully reinvented herself as a versatile winger under Joe Montemurro and built up a good relationship on the pitch with Arsenal leading goalscorer Vivianne Miedema combining nine times to score, more than any other duo. She also broke the record for most assists in a single season with 12 and created more chances than any other Arsenal player with 54. She finished third in the WSL for total goal contributions with 7 goals along with her 12 assists. Mead capped a great season off by scoring the 3rd goal in Arsenal's 4–0 title clinching win at Brighton and Hove Albion on 28 April 2019.

Mead signed a new long-term contract with Arsenal on 28 November 2019. She suffered an injury during a 3–2 league win against Liverpool on 13 February 2020. A week later, Arsenal announced that she had injured her medial collateral ligament, which led to her being omitted from the England squad for the 2020 SheBelieves Cup.

During a match against Chelsea on 15 November 2020, Mead scored in the 86th minute of the 1–1 draw.

International career

Mead playing for England in 2019

Mead has represented England at every age level from under-15, and played in all three England under-20 matches at the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup where she scored a long-range goal against Mexico.

In April 2018, Mead made her debut for the senior England women's national football team as a substitute in a 0–0 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification draw with Wales in Southampton. She started her first match in September 2018, scoring twice in England's 6–0 win over Kazakhstan in Pavlodar.

In February 2019, Mead scored a "stunning" game-winning goal against Brazil during England's first match of the 2019 SheBelieves Cup. A few days later, she scored during the team's 3–0 against Japan to win the tournament. On 9 April, she scored the game-opening goal in the 36th minute against Spain lifting England to an eventual 2–1 win.

Mead started in the first two games of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup in France. She provided the assist to Jodie Taylor's goal during the team's second group stage match against Argentina — a 1–0 win. After finishing first in Group D and defeating Cameroon 3–0 in the Round of 16, England faced Norway in the quarter-finals. During the 3–0 win, Mead provided the assist on Lucy Bronze's goal in the 57th minute lifting England to a 3–0 win. During the semi-final against 2015 champions, the United States, Mead started on the left flank for England and provided the assist on Ellen White's equalizer goal in the first half of the match. England was ultimately defeated 2–1. The semi-final match was the most watched programme on UK television thus far in 2019, with 11.7 million viewers.

In October 2019, Mead scored England's game-winning goal against Portugal. Later that month, she created more chances than any other player during a 2–1 loss against Brazil in front of a record-breaking 29,238 fans at Riverside Stadium in Middlesbrough. On 9 November 2019, she competed in a 2–1 loss against Germany in front of a record-breaking 77,768 spectators at Wembley Stadium.

In February 2020, Mead was left off the squad for the 2020 SheBelieves Cup due to injury.

On 23 October 2021, Mead scored a first international hat-trick as England defeated Northern Ireland 4–0 with all four goals coming within a fourteen minute second-half spell.

On 8 April 2022, Mead scored a third international hat-trick (her second was against Latvia) and four goals as England defeated North Macedonia 10–0.

In June, Mead was included in the England squad which won the UEFA Women's Euro 2022. At the tournament, she scored the only goal against Austria in a 1-0 win, her fourth career hat-trick against Norway, and another goal against Northern Ireland in a 5-0 win to cap a run of scoring in every group stage match. She failed to score in the quarter-final against Spain but scored yet again in a 4-0 win over Sweden in the semi-final. She did not score in England's final win over Germany but her six goals and 5 assists were sufficient to see her win the Golden Boot, while also breaking the record for most goals ever scored at a Women's Euro.

Beth Mead Scholarship

Beth Mead and her alma mater Teeside University launched Beth Mead Scholarship in February 2022. The Beth Mead Scholarship is designed to support dual career students who have the potential to reach professional, national or international level within women’s football. Beth Mead scholars will each receive a bursary of £1,200, as well as bespoke sport science support to help them unlock their full potential. This will include strength and conditioning, physiotherapy, sport nutrition, sport psychology, biomechanical analysis and sport physiology from a team of experts at Teesside University. In addition, scholars will also receive one-to-one and group mentoring with Beth Mead during their studies, as well as branded sports kits and gym membership.

Personal life

Whilst playing for Sunderland, Mead gained a degree in Sports Development from Teesside University.

In popular culture

We Play Strong

In February 2020, Mead joined #WePlayStrong, a social media and vlogging campaign which was launched in 2018. The campaign's "...aim is to promote women's football as much as we can and to make people aware of women's football, really". "The ultimate goal is to make football the most played sport by females by 2020." The series, which also originally included professional footballers Lisa Evans, Sarah Zadrazil, Eunice Beckmann, Laura Feiersinger and now also includes Petronella Ekroth and Shanice van de Sanden, follows the daily lives of female professional footballers. Her fitness routines have been shared online as part of the #TrainAtHome series.
