Myles Lewis-Skelly to leave Arsenal?! Real Madrid on high alert as talks over new contract for England star 'not going well'

The Guardian claims that negotiations between Arsenal and the left-back, whose current terms expire in 2026, over a new deal are 'not going well' and Real Madrid are 'sniffing around' the situation as a result.

Lewis-Skelly has enjoyed a meteoric rise over the past season; going from making his Arsenal debut, to becoming a first-team regular, starring in the Champions League, and then playing for England for the first time. But the 18-year-old, who has received rave reviews in recent months, is clearly ambitious, and if the Gunners want to tie him down to a new deal, it needs to be a good offer.

Lewis-Skelly played much of his youth football as a central midfielder and can be utilised in attacking and defensive roles. But he has been a revelation since being deployed at left-back this season.

The teenager is one of many players Arsenal are trying to tie down to a new deal, including William Saliba, Bukayo Saka, Thomas Partey, and more. Whether he signs a new contract remains to be seen.
