Biography
Mackenzie Elizabeth Arnold (born 25 February 1994) is an Australian international soccer player who plays as a goalkeeper for West Ham United in the English FA WSL and the Australia women's national soccer team.
Early life
Arnold attended Palm Beach Currumbin High School on the Gold Coast.
Club career
In 2012, Arnold joined Canberra United from Perth Glory ahead of the 2012–13 W-League.
Arnold joined Western Sydney Wanderers in 2013. However, she was later ruled out for a significant amount of the season after suffering a deep cut to the leg in the carpark following a match in the 2013 AFC U-19 Women's Championship.
Arnold returned to Perth Glory in September 2014.
Arnold was approached to switch codes and play Australian rules football in the newly formed AFL Women's in 2016, but chose to remain in soccer.
In October 2016, Brisbane Roar announced that they had signed Arnold.
In March 2018, she signed with Arna-Bjørnar in the Toppserien.
In July 2019, she played for the Chicago Red Stars, in the NWSL.
International career
Arnold received her first call-up to the Australian national team for a tour of the United States in 2012. She made her debut in November that year, keeping a clean sheet in a win over Chinese Taipei in the 2013 EAFF Women's East Asian Cup preliminary round 2. She soon began to feature regularly in national squads in 2013, with previous incumbent goalkeepers Melissa Barbieri and Lydia Williams unavailable. Following their returns, Arnold was not included in the national setup for some time, before returning for the 2015 Cyprus Cup in March 2015.
Mackenzie was included as one of three goalkeepers in the Matildas squad for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada.
