Forward came off the bench to help her team beat Aston Villa 2-1Mead hopes she ‘gets a chance’ with England in Nations League
Beth Mead says she is “ready to compete” for England again after making her return for Arsenal at the weekend following an 11-month injury layoff. The forward came on in the 88th minute against Aston Villa and contributed towards her side coming from 1-0 behind to secure a dramatic 2-1 win.
Sarina Wiegman will name her England squad on Tuesday for the Nations League double-header against Belgium at the end of the month and Mead says she is hopeful she “gets a chance” to be included. “Unfortunately I am not a mind reader, I don’t know where her [Wiegman’s] brain is at the moment,” Mead said. “I am ready to compete. If Sarina thinks so or not is a different story. But in my own head, I am ready to compete.”
