Arsenal are open to allowing Myles Lewis-Skelly to leave on loan next season, with several Premier League clubs monitoring his situation.

Everton, Crystal Palace and West Ham are among the sides interested in signing the young defender on a temporary deal.  

Premier League clubs tracking Lewis-Skelly

Interest in Lewis-Skelly has grown as the defender looks for more consistent playing time.

Arsenal are willing to sanction a loan move. However, the club want assurances that he will play regularly before approving any deal.  

That condition reflects the club’s long-term plan for the player, who remains highly rated internally.

Game time key to Arsenal decision

Lewis-Skelly has found opportunities limited this season due to increased competition in defence.

The arrival and form of other defensive options have pushed him down the pecking order, making a loan move more likely.

Regular minutes are now seen as essential for his development.

Clubs circle ahead of summer window

Everton, Crystal Palace and West Ham are all keeping a close eye on the situation.

Each club could offer valuable Premier League experience, which would help accelerate Lewis-Skelly’s progress.

A temporary move would allow him to gain experience while remaining part of Arsenal’s long-term plans.

Arsenal balancing development and depth

Arsenal still view Lewis-Skelly as one of their most promising young players.

The club are not considering a permanent exit at this stage.

Instead, a loan move would give him the chance to develop further before returning to compete for a place in the first team.
