Myles Lewis-Skelly has signed a new five-year contract with Arsenal.
The club confirmed the news on Thursday. It has been reported elsewhere that the new contract will make Lewis-Skelly one of the world’s best-paid young players.
Lewis-Skelly began last season playing for the Under-21s, but went on to enjoy a stellar breakthrough season with the Gunners first team, largely playing out of position at left-back during 39 appearances across all competitions.
He made his debut against Manchester City and went on to face Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League quarter- and semi-finals.
In March, Lewis-Skelley earned his first senior England call-up, and scored on his debut against Albania at Wembley, becoming the youngest player in history to do so.
Last week Lewis-Skelly was nominated for the PFA Young Player of the Year award.
Arsenal recently announced that Gabriel had signed a new contract, and the club have opened talks with centre-back partner William Saliba over an extension.
