Manchester United are not exploring a move for Arsenal star Myles Lewis-Skelly despite the recent speculation in the media.
Lewis-Skelly struggled for minutes during the last campaign, but he played a prominent role in midfield in the final month of the season.
The youngster can operate as a left-back or in midfield, and it was recently claimed that United have a long-standing interest.
This has now been dismissed by Standard Sport, who report that the Red Devils are not pursuing a deal for the 19-year-old.
United are instead keen on landing Lewis Hall from Newcastle United, but could likewise miss out on signing the Englishman.
The Magpies consider the 21-year-old ‘untouchable’ and have no plans of parting ways with him during the transfer window.
United may have to look elsewhere to strengthen their left-back department ahead of the league season, which starts this month.
Patrick Dorgu is presently the backup for Luke Shaw in the role, but he has been defensive vulnerable and more adept as a winger.
