Myles Lewis-Skelly Makes Major Decision About Arsenal Future with His Contract Nearing Its End

Myles Lewis-Skelly has agreed to a new long-term contract with Arsenal, according to sources with an official announcement from the club expected soon.

This new deal is a significant win for Arsenal and manager Mikel Arteta as they prepare for the upcoming Premier League season. Lewis-Skelly's previous contract was set to expire next year.

The 18-year-old midfielder enjoyed a breakout season last year, becoming a regular starter around the turn of the year and solidifying his position as Arteta's first-choice left-back.

Lewis-Skelly also made his mark on the international stage, scoring for England on his debut against Albania in March. This achievement made him the youngest player ever to score in his first senior appearance for England.

His impressive performances against Real Madrid in the Champions League attracted the attention of the Spanish giants, who were reportedly monitoring his contract situation.

However, according to Charleswatts.football, Lewis-Skelly's priority was always to extend his stay with his boyhood club. Sporting director Andrea Berta has now finalised the deal.

This contract renewal follows the recent announcement of a new deal for defender Gabriel Magalhaes. The club is also in ongoing contract negotiations with Bukayo Saka, William Saliba, Ethan Nwaneri, and Leandro Trossard.
