Arsenal are reportedly prepared to sanction the sale of academy graduates Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly in the upcoming summer transfer window, with a combined valuation of around £100 million.

According to BBC reports via GIVEMESPORT, the Premier League club is open to listening to offers for both young talents as they continue to struggle for consistent first-team opportunities at the Emirates Stadium.

Lewis-Skelly has fallen down the pecking order at left-back following the arrival of Riccardo Calafiori, while Nwaneri’s development has stalled during his loan spell at Marseille.

The midfielder’s loan move, initially intended to provide regular playing time, has reportedly failed to deliver the expected progress. His form dipped in recent weeks, and he has struggled to secure a regular starting position following managerial changes at the French club.

The dismissal of Marseille head coach Roberto De Zerbi has further complicated his situation, limiting his opportunities for consistent minutes.

Despite their setbacks, both players remain highly rated across Europe. Their status as homegrown players also makes them financially attractive, as any transfer fee would be recorded as pure profit under financial regulations.

Strong Market Interest Emerges
Premier League clubs in the upper half of the table are reportedly monitoring Lewis-Skelly, while Nwaneri has attracted interest from other English sides as well as German giants Borussia Dortmund.

Arsenal are said to be targeting a combined fee of around £100 million for both players, reflecting their long-term potential despite recent development challenges.

Risk of Fan Backlash
However, a potential sale of two academy-developed players could spark mixed reactions among supporters, as clubs are often reluctant to part ways with homegrown talents seen as part of the team’s future identity.
