Myles Lewis-Skelly appeared to underline his commitment to Arsenal after setting aside transfer speculation to score in Wednesday's 1-1 friendly draw with Italian club Como. The 19-year-old has been linked with Chelsea and Manchester United amid uncertainty over his future.\n\nStarting in midfield, he capitalised on an error from Como goalkeeper Jean Butez to slot the hosts ahead in the 33rd minute at Emirates Stadium. Lewis-Skelly then made a heart sign to the crowd before tapping the club badge on his shirt.\n\nThe England international signed a five-year contract last summer but fell behind Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapié to become Mikel Arteta's third choice left back.

He enjoyed an end-of-season resurgence in centre midfield, but Arsenal are well‑stocked there after signing Bruno Guimarães for £75 million. Guimarães debuted against Como, managed by Cesc Fabregas.\n\nComo equalised through Martin Baturina in the 43rd minute, but Arsenal won the penalty shootout 4‑3, with Guimarães and Christos Tzolis scoring.
