The Arsenal academy product shot to fame last season after establishing himself as a regular starter in the team&#8217;s left-back position. However, his playing time has significantly decreased since the signing of Piero Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen along with Riccardo Calafioli on summer loan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Hincapie&#8217;s loan is expected to become permanent in the summer. Sky Sports claim that Lewis-Skelly is a highly rated player by the Red Devils, alongside Frankfurt&#8217;s Nathaniel Brown and Newcastle&#8217;s Lewis Hall. A number of elite clubs across Europe are tracking the status of Louis Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Nwaneri is currently on loan at Marseille in France. The 18-year-old, like academy graduate Lewis Skelly, has found his way to consistent competitive action amid restrictions in north London.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Express sports on FB!

Tyrell Malasia appears destined to leave the club in the near future, but the club have brought in 18-year-old Diego Leon, who is not yet in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>From an Arsenal perspective, Mikel Arteta has consistently praised Lewis-Skelly, but has been outspoken about the reality of Hincapie and Calafioli&#8217;s performances.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>He said earlier this month: &#8220;Each season is different.
