On-loan Mace playing against Arsenal a 'win-win' for all involved, says Montemurro

Ruby Mace playing against Arsenal is a "win-win" for all involved, according to Joe Montemurro, who wants her to get as much "valuable experience" as possible while out on loan.

Mace will be gearing up to face her parent club with Birmingham City in a Women's Super League clash on Sunday afternoon.

The Blues snapped up the 17-year-old as a dual signing in January, as she also remains registered with the Gunners' academy, and Montemurro is looking forward to seeing how she performs against his side.
