Arsenal reveal Myles Lewis-Skelly stance after £45m Manchester United transfer is labelled a 'no brainer'

Read MoreDespite that stance, it has not stopped Man Utd legend Wayne Rooney claiming it would be a “no-brainer” for his former club to pursue Lewis-Skelly, especially with a reported price-tag of £45million."I don’t think you can rely on Luke Shaw to be consistent for the whole season and that leads me to Myles Lewis-Skelly,” Rooney said on the Stick to United podcast."We’re hearing that he could be available for not that much money, so I think that’s an absolute no-brainer."If you can get a player in who can play left-back and centre-midfield, that’s an absolute no-brainer. He’s young and he’s got a massive future ahead of him."Arsenal have spent a lot over the last couple of years so selling Lewis-Skelly makes some sense as it would be pure profit. I don’t think it would be a great look but I can see why they might sell him."If you’re United and he becomes available it’s a no-brainer, they definitely need to bring in a left-back, that’s a priority for United."However, Garlick, the Arsenal CEO, has moved to squash any talk of Lewis-Skelly leaving once and for all.“Myles has had a fantastic end to last season and he started this season really well and as I say we're always looking to retain and build on our best players,” Garlick told talkSPORT.“Obviously there may be speculation, I'm not going to go into that from other clubs but we're very happy with Myles and the position he's in at the club.”
