Everton, Crystal Palace & West Ham Eye Loan Move As Arsenal Make Forgotten Gem Available

Arsenal have reportedly made one of their young players available for a loan move in the summer transfer window.

The Gunners are currently still competing on all four fronts, and have a legitimate chance to win the quadruple under Mikel Arteta this season.

Much of their success has come from how well the defence has performed under Arteta, with the ever-present back four of Gabriel, William Saliba, Jurrien Timber and Riccardo Calafiori.

However, the fact that these four names have dominated the minutes under Arteta, it means that several others players aren’t getting the minutes that they would want. Such as left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly.

Myles Lewis-Skelly eyed by Premier League rivals

Lewis-Skelly’s role at Arsenal has significantly reduced this season, despite the fact that he signed a new long-term contract with the Gunners last term.

However, according to Caught Offside, Arsenal are planning to loan Lewis-Skelly out to a Premier League club in the summer in order for him to build his experience and help develop as a player before hopefully returning to the Emirates and starting in Arteta’s first team.

The report says that Everton, West Ham and Crystal Palace are all keeping tabs on Lewis-Skelly’s situation at Arsenal, and could all be up for landing him on a loan deal in the summer. Everton seems the best destination as things stand, because West Ham could suffer relegation, and Palace plays a back three, which doesn’t suit Lewis-Skelly’s talents.

This season, the 19-year-old has made just 14 Premier league appearances, featuring more heavily in Europe and in the cup competitions. His lack of minutes has lost him his place in Thomas Tuchel’s England squad, which is a huge blow ahead of the World Cup, which he looks set to miss out on in the summer.
