Arsenal's Myles Lewis-Skelly Earns First England Call-Up

Arsenal's promising young talent, Myles Lewis-Skelly, has earned his first senior international call-up, as England manager Thomas Tuchel includes him in the squad for the upcoming FIFA 2026 World Cup qualifiers. 

The 18-year-old left-back, a graduate of Arsenal's Hale End Academy, has been a standout performer this season. Since making his senior debut in September, Lewis-Skelly has become a key figure in Mikel Arteta's squad, amassing 25 appearances and scoring his first goal in a commanding 5-1 victory over Manchester City in February. His rapid development and consistent performances have earned him a place in Tuchel's inaugural England squad.

England will face Albania on March 21 and Latvia on March 24, both at Wembley Stadium, as they begin their journey to secure a spot in the 2026 World Cup. Lewis-Skelly's inclusion reflects Tuchel's strategy of blending experienced players with emerging talent to build a competitive team for the future.
