Arsenal is willing to consider the sale of Myles Lewis-Skelly, but only if the right price is offered. The young talent from the London club, who has attracted the attention of giants like Manchester United and Chelsea, could be on the move, provided that his valuation of around €45 million is respected. The information was reported by Ben Jacobs, who highlighted that the player would also need to reconsider his intention to stay and fight for a place in the team.
Jacobs, in statements made on Thursday, emphasized that “at an appropriate value, Arsenal would be prepared to negotiate Lewis-Skelly, but a club would have to approach them, not the other way around.” This situation arises after rumors indicated that the player has been offered directly to Manchester United, in addition to Chelsea, which often negotiates with their London rivals. The Gunners' financial situation, after investing €75 million in the signing of Bruno Guimarães, may have led the club to consider selling one of their young talents to balance the books.
The 19-year-old had limited playing time last season, due to the good form of Riccardo Calafiori and the arrival of Piero Hincapie, which could represent a similar obstacle next season when the 2026/2027 championship kicks off. Lewis-Skelly will have to seriously compete for a place in the squad, which may influence his decision to stay with the team or not.
Meanwhile, INEOS is focusing on signing Lewis Hall, a player from Newcastle United, but the latter's refusal to sell the athlete is complicating negotiations for the Red Devils. Hall, who is two years older than Lewis-Skelly, has considerable experience in the Premier League, having played 41 more games than his compatriot since his €35 million transfer from Chelsea to Newcastle in 2023.
As negotiations progress and pressure mounts, Lewis-Skelly's situation remains a hot topic among fans and football analysts. The possibility of a transfer could not only change the future of the young player but also impact the market strategies of the clubs involved.
