Myles Lewis-Skelly might need to leave Arsenal at the end of the season so that he can play regularly, and Manchester United is interested in him.

They could use more depth in the left back department, and the 19-year-old would be a solid future investment for them. He is a young player with a lot of potential, and the club could groom him into a starter.

Man United could use Myles Lewis-Skelly

Luke Shaw is in the twilight stages of his career, and they need to replace him properly. Signing the Arsenal player could be a wise decision. The young defender will be hungry to prove himself at the highest level, and his desire to succeed will be an added bonus.

Manchester United have already made enquiries for the player, and it remains to be seen whether they are prepared to break the Bank for him. Convincing Arsenal to sell one of their brightest young prospects will not be easy. Ben Jacobs has confirmed that Manchester United might have to pay over the odds in order to get the deal done.

“United made an informal enquiry, they like him,” Jacobs said (h/t CaughtOffside). “The player is prepared to explore options in order to seek more game time.

“If someone wants to approach club-to-club talks, they’ll have to overpay. Suitors will need to get Lewis-Skelly to buy into the move first, in order to convince Arsenal to negotiate.”
