Myles Lewis-Skelly pens new Arsenal deal | OneFootball

Arsenal teenager Myles Lewis-Skelly has committed his future to the club after signing a new long-term contract.

The 18-year-old had an excellent first season for the club, playing 39 times for Mikel Arteta's team and scoring his first senior goal in the 5-1 win over Manchester City back in February.

"I’m so proud and happy. I know those words are simple, but I think they sum up how I feel signing for this club. I’m a fan and it’s like a dream come true," Lewis-Skelly said after penning his new deal.

"I've embodied the values of Hale End and come through. I've still got a lot of years ahead of me, so if I can keep staying humble and being a good person, that's the most important thing to me.

"I know I've taken a lot of experience from the games about the positive moments, the mistakes that I've made. I'm definitely more ready now for the next season. I just want to keep learning and keep improving.

"I want a legacy. I want to win everything there is to win in the game. I want to win trophies on the biggest stages whilst being a person that's always learning and stays grounded, which is so important."

While Arsenal do not generally announce the length of contracts, reports suggest that the academy product's new deal will keep him at the club until 2030.
