Women's Super League side Arsenal give update on Beth Mead's injury

Women's Super League defending champions Arsenal have confirmed Beth Mead injured her knee in their match against Liverpool last week.

The club say she injured her MCL ligament but did not go into more detail and only confirmed she would be back 'later in the season'.

Mead missed out on a spot in England's SheBelieves Cup squad due to the injury and she said she is 'gutted' not to be included.

Lionesses manager Phil Neville also said Mead's injury was a 'blow' for England.
