Myles Anthony Lewis-Skelly

Myles Anthony Lewis-Skelly is an English midfielder from London who developed at Arsenal after joining the club’s academy at eight. He also played in central defence during his schoolboy years, gaining early experience in recovering possession and carrying the ball forward. In 2022/23, Lewis-Skelly helped Arsenal’s Under-18s reach the FA Youth Cup final and scored a 121st-minute winner against Manchester City in the semi-final. He signed his first professional contract in October 2023, initially as a midfielder. Arsenal then used him at left-back, where his midfield background supported his involvement in buildup play and progression from deep areas. Lewis-Skelly made his senior Arsenal debut against Manchester City in September 2024 and became a regular during the 2024/25 season. He has also progressed through England’s youth setup to the Under-21 squad.
