Rio Ferdinand Calls Myles Lewis-Skelly a Special Talent After UCL Win Over Madrid
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has praised Arsenal’s young talent Myles Lewis-Skelly after his standout performance in their 2-1 win over Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-final second leg.
The 18-year-old played the full match at the Bernabeu, helping Arsenal secure a historic victory with goals from Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli.
Speaking on TNT Sports, Ferdinand was full of admiration for the teenager’s composure.
“Wait, Lewis-Skelly is really just 18?” he asked, clearly impressed. “He looks so calm and confident both on and off the ball.”
Ferdinand added that even before the match, Lewis-Skelly appeared relaxed and composed while taking a call, calling him a “special” player.
The young midfielder will now be hoping to keep up his strong form when Arsenal take on Ipswich Town in the Premier League.
It has been reported that Liverpool turned down the opportunity to sign Real Madrid star Vinícius Júnior.
It can be noted that two teams have set their sights on the player, and since Liverpool has backed out, Arsenal are now interested in him.
Vinícius notably only has one year left on his Real Madrid contract and could possibly transfer to another team.
It can be noted that Karim Adeyemi, a Nigerian football player, just signed with Barcelona and shared his reason behind joining the team. He stated that it was because of Hansi Flick.
He shared how he wants to contribute to the club and admires the coach for making that possible.
“Hansi Flick is the main reason why I’m here. I have spoken a lot with him and have trusted him greatly from the very first moment. I’m willing to help to achieve the objectives.”
