Impact Lewis-Skelly has made the most of his opportunities in Arsenal's recent run of unofficial matches, scoring once and delivering an assist over four outings. Even though the versatile man has performed well as a midfielder, it will be difficult for him to earn a consistent role in that zone given that the team now has multiple high-quality natural options such as Declan Rice and Bruno Guimaraes. Therefore, Lewis-Skelly's future remains uncertain amid transfer rumors, but he could also serve as a useful full-back asset if he stays with the Gunners.
