Initially spending the second half of the 2022/23 Barclays Women's Super League season at Leicester, the 20-year-old made 11 appearances for the Foxes in all competitions.
Mace’s footballing education saw her begin her career with Arsenal, where she made her debut at 17 – coming on as a substitute in a 4-0 Vitality Women’s FA Cup Quarter-Final win over Tottenham Hotspur in 2020.
Recognised for her talent early on, the following season saw Mace join Birmingham City on a dual registration basis, playing 11 times for the West Midlands outfit during their WSL campaign, before a move to Manchester City materialised in June 2021.
Mace’s rapid progression has also earned her regular call-ups within England’s youth setup, capped at Under-17s, Under-19s and now Under-23s level.
An industrious and reliable midfielder now entering her fifth year in senior football, Mace brings a tenacity and robustness to the Foxes squad.
