Don’t accept Man United offer – Wilshere advises lewis‑Skelly

Arsenal are seeking depth at left‑back as competition intensifies. Myles Lewis‑Skelly, a versatile defender who can also operate in central midfield, offers a strategic option for Mikel Arteta’s squad at the Emirates Stadium.

Recall that the Red Devils have explored and prepared a potential transfer bid, seeking cover at left‑back. Manchester United’s interest signals a serious bid for Lewis‑Skelly as they look to strengthen that position.

Former England midfielder Jack Wilshere has advised Lewis‑Skelly to reject the Man United offer and stay to fight for his place. "I’d like to see him stay and fight for his place, because I believe he’s good enough to find his way in that team," Wilshere told .

Wilshere added that Arsenal will push United for in excess of £50M as a transfer fee. The former England midfielder stressed the financial expectations surrounding any potential deal.

Lewis‑Skelly has been a rising star for Arsenal, shining in both left‑back and central midfield roles. He overcame early‑season adversity to lock down an important role, earning praise for his athleticism, ball‑carrying and composure in high‑pressure matches.

The next step for the teenager is to remain at Arsenal, fight for his place and navigate competition from Calafiori. United’s interest remains, but Wilshere’s counsel and the club’s fee expectations shape the upcoming negotiations.
