Mead has enjoyed a brilliant 18 months and she finished as the runner-up in Ballon d’Or voting this year after helping England to win Euro 2022 on home soil.
The forward was the top scorer at the tournament and was also voted as the best player.
Mead, who is currently sidelined due to a knee injury, has been in fine form for Arsenal and last season she had 14 goals and 19 assists for the Gunners as they narrowly missed out on winning the Women’s Super League (WSL).
“I’m so happy to have signed a new deal with Arsenal,” said Mead. “This club is home for me – I’ve grown so much here as a player and a person and I know we can achieve so much more together in the years to come.
“I want to compete to win the biggest trophies in the game and I know that the ambitions at Arsenal match m
y own, so I can’t wait to get back onto the pitch and help to deliver the success our supporters deserve.”
Tying Mead down to a new deal is a huge boost for Arsenal, who are currently top of their Champions League group and second in the WSL.
Head coach Jonas Eidevall added: “It’s wonderful news that we have agreed a new deal with Beth. She is a world-class footballer and has proven that on the biggest stage of them all.
