Arsenal's Myles Lewis-Skelly is expected to remain with the club following reports that the ace was being offered to Manchester United.
Chelsea and Manchester United had both been offered the opportunity to sign Lewis-Skelly.
Man United odds were coming in at 6/5 and Chelsea 19/10 with Newcastle in the mix at 3/1 odds prior to August 11.
The Times on Tuesday reported that Lewis-Skelly will not be offered to Man United.
‘Manchester United were also sounded out but are not interested this time.
‘An intermediary offered Lewis-Skelly to United among other clubs in January, saying that he would cost about £60m. United baulked at that price.’
And Chelsea?
The Athletic stated: ‘Myles Lewis-Skelly wants to stay at Arsenal and is fully focused on establishing himself in Mikel Arteta’s first-team plans for the upcoming season.
‘The 19-year-old’s performances have attracted interest from elsewhere, but Lewis-Skelly is happy at Arsenal and is not exploring a move away.
‘Instead, the Arsenal academy graduate’s attention is on the challenge of competing for regular first-team football during the forthcoming campaign. Lewis-Skelly signed a long-term contract with his boyhood club in the summer of 2025.
‘Lewis-Skelly has started regularly for Arsenal in pre-season, and it’s understood that the club are not actively offering the England international out for sale.’
