Arsenal star Myles Lewis-Skelly on the radar of Manchester United ahead of the summer
Arsenal star Myles Lewis-Skelly on the radar of Manchester United ahead of the summer Manchester United are monitoring the situation of Arsenal star Myles Lewis-Skelly as they look to sign a new left-back this summer, according to Sky Sports reporter Danyal Khan. The Gunners academy graduate has told Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta of his frustration for not playing regularly at the Emirates Stadium club. Man United want to strengthen at left-back and will look to bring a younger option to the Old Trafford club in the coming months.
The Red Devils have already been linked with Newcastle United full-back Lewis Hall and his Eintracht Frankfurt counterpart Nathaniel Brown. Lewis-Skelly, who signed a five-year deal at Arsenal last summer, has also emerged as a target but it remains to be seen whether the North London club will be open to a deal. The 19-year-old is behind Piero Hincapie and Riccardo Calafiori in the pecking order for the left-back spot and has started just one Premier League game this term.
The Gunners are expected to make major sales this term to balance the books and selling Lewis-Skelly could appeal to them if he insists he wants out. He can also feature in midfield, which could appeal to Man United as they look to replace Casemiro. The Arsenal star was in the plans of England manager Thomas Tuchel last term, making six appearances for the Three Lions last year.
