Arsenal talent Myles Lewis-Skelly has been spotted in first-team training ahead of Monday’s clash with Sheffield United.

Arsenal return to Premier League action on Monday night and face a potential banana skin at Bramall Lane.

Few are really expecting Sheffield United to come up with a result against Arsenal as they battle against relegation.

Arsenal must still keep full focus though and make sure they get the job done.

Mikel Arteta has been putting his players through their paces today and one teenager was spotted in the session…

Myles Lewis-Skelly in Arsenal training

Arsenal trained at London Colney on Sunday, getting in one final session before facing Sheffield United.

We are used to seeing Arteta bring young players into the picture, helping their development by putting them around senior players.

That was the case for Myles Lewis-Skelly on Sunday as the midfielder took part in first-team training.

Photos show Lewis-Skelly celebrating alongside Bukayo Saka in training after seemingly winning some kind of small game.

Gabriel Magalhaes, Eddie Nketiah, Aaron Ramsdale, Reiss Nelson and Mohamed Elneny were also seen alongside Saka and Lewis-Skelly.

A place in the squad against Sheffield United seems unlikely for Lewis-Skelly but another first-team session just before a key game sums up his talent.

The 17-year-old has played seven times in Premier League 2 this season, bagging one goal and two assists.

A talented central midfield player, Lewis-Skelly doesn’t turn 18 until September but there has already been hype about his potential.

Saka is the man Lewis-Skelly will be looking towards having made the rise from Arsenal’s youth team to the first team.

Who knows, maybe we will see them celebrating together in the Arsenal first team down the line, as long as Lewis-Skelly continues developing.
