[Saba Sports News] Recently, Myles Lewis-Skelly’s mother, Marcia, appeared on the “Sports Agent” program and mentioned that she often confuses Skelly with Jurrien Timber. She also revealed that Skelly is very considerate at home. Marcia said, “To be honest, he is surrounded by great people, family and friends. He is an ordinary boy, very lovely, polite, and they joke with each other. He also does chores at home, like cleaning the dishwasher and tidying his room.” Marcia also shared that she sometimes finds it hard to distinguish between Skelly and Timber during matches because they have very similar physiques. Skelly may soon become one of the most well-known stars in British football; he made his first team debut as a substitute in Arsenal’s 2-2 draw against Manchester City last September. Although he only played for a few minutes that day, the talented young player immediately garnered attention. This season, Skelly has continued to thrive at Arsenal, scoring a goal in last weekend’s 5-1 victory over Manchester City. He is now a regular member of Arsenal’s first team, and recent reports indicate that the 18-year-old may soon be called up to the England national team.
