Alan Smith stated that Arsenal could sell Myles Lewis-Skelly. Smith criticized Lewis-Skelly's defensive abilities and suggested that he should be sold by the club in the summer. Smith said that he thinks the player might be sold for PSR reasons. He explained that as Lewis-Skelly is a youth team player, a sale would be pure profit, and therefore he unfortunately thinks the player might have to leave the club.

According to The Athletic, limited minutes for Arsenal duo Ethan Nwaneri and 19-year-old English defender Myles Lewis-Skelly have prompted interest from a number of clubs, and the Gunners are very reluctant to lose either player. Lewis-Skelly, who has been capped 6 times for England, is under contract with Arsenal until 2030. His current market value is €40.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
