Arsenal could grant youngster his wish amid Man Utd interest

Myles Lewis-Skelly has been linked with a potential summer move to Manchester United as he continues to struggle for regular game time at Arsenal. The young left back has found opportunities limited, raising questions about his future at the Emirates.

Currently regarded as the fourth choice in his position, Lewis Skelly has faced difficulty breaking into the team. His absence from selection for key fixtures, including the Carabao Cup final, highlights the challenge he faces in gaining minutes. It appears that Mikel Arteta favours other options, and the defender remains behind his competitors in the pecking order.

Uncertain Future at Arsenal

Despite his limited role, Lewis Skelly is still considered an important talent within the club’s academy system. He has worked hard to maintain his fitness and readiness, but this has not yet translated into increased opportunities on the pitch.

As reported by Mirror Football, there is a strong possibility that Arsenal could allow him to leave if Manchester United make a serious approach at the end of the season. The report suggests that the club may be open to a sale under the right circumstances.

Potential Move to Old Trafford

Arsenal values Lewis Skelly highly as one of their most promising academy graduates. However, his departure would represent pure profit for the club, which could influence their decision-making. Additionally, Arteta has previously shown a willingness to allow players to leave if they express a desire for more regular football.

A move to Manchester United could offer Lewis Skelly the chance to secure consistent playing time and continue his development. Should the transfer materialise, Arsenal would likely look to bring in a replacement, ensuring they maintain adequate depth in the position while allowing the player to progress elsewhere.
