Myles Lewis-Skelly linked to Manchester United amid transfer speculation

Transfer speculation is intensifying around Arsenal youngster Myles Lewis-Skelly, with Manchester United emerging as a primary contender. Wayne Rooney has urged Manchester United to pursue the 19-year-old, describing a potential deal as an ‘absolute no-brainer’ due to his versatility as both a left-back and midfielder. Rooney noted that the club cannot rely solely on Luke Shaw's consistency and needs reliable cover in those positions.

While Arsenal has reportedly been open to selling the academy graduate to balance books following the signing of Bruno Guimarães, reports indicate Lewis-Skelly remains fully focused on establishing himself at the Emirates. Betting markets currently list Manchester United as the frontrunner for his next move, followed by Chelsea and Newcastle United.

In other Premier League news, Arsenal is managing the potential departure of Gabriel Martinelli and exploring interest in striker Victor Osimhen. The new season is set to begin on Friday, August 21, with Arsenal hosting Coventry City.
