Myles Lewis-Skelly is attracting interest from Real Madrid after enjoying a stunning breakthrough season at Arsenal.
The 18-year-old made 39 appearances across all competitions for Mikel Arteta‘s side in the 2024-25 campaign, having previously not played a single minute for the first team.
The left-back is currently away with the England national team after making his senior debut in March, where he scored in a 2-0 victory over Albania.
The Sun reported on 2 June Arsenal are confident Lewis-Skelly will sign a new long-term deal to remain at the Emirates this summer.
The Gunners are vulnerable to losing the teenager if they don’t quickly resolve his future, with his contract set to expire in June 2026.
Finance expert Stefan Borson exclusively told Football Insider Lewis-Skelly will sign a new deal at the Emirates as there is no way Arsenal are going to let him leave following his rise into the first team.

Borson insisted Lewis-Skelly’s situation is similar to Bukayo Saka’s at Arsenal after he’s been repeatedly linked with a move away from the Emirates in recent years.
He told Football Insider: “He will obviously stay at Arsenal.
“We have had this situation with loads of these players at Arsenal before.
“With Saka, every year that he was running to the end of his contract, there were these sorts of noises.
“We know there’s no way Arsenal are going to let him leave.
“He will sign a new contract.”

Arsenal lead race to sign Morgan Gibbs-White
In terms of a potential incoming, Arsenal could be set for an unchallenged pursuit of Morgan Gibbs-White this summer after the latest news in the transfer window.
It has been reported Man City are unlikely to swoop for the Nottingham Forest star as they finalise a deal for AC Milan midfielder Tijjani Reijnders.
Both Man City and Arsenal are long-term admirers of Gibbs-White, who led Nuno Espirito Santo’s side to European qualification in the latest campaign.
