Declan Rice Advocates for Myles Lewis-Skelly Amid England Call-Up

Declan Rice, the influential midfielder for Arsenal and England, has come out in strong support of young talent Myles Lewis-Skelly, who has recently been called up to represent England at the youth level. Rice emphasized the importance of not rushing the development of the 17-year-old, despite the excitement surrounding his call-up. 'It's crucial that we give Myles the space to grow without the pressure of instant success,' Rice stated, highlighting the potential pitfalls of overhyping young players.

Lewis-Skelly's inclusion in the England squad has been a topic of much discussion, especially after his impressive performances at club level. His coach, Thomas Tuchel, also weighed in, praising the youngster's potential while cautioning against setting unrealistic expectations. Tuchel's management of Lewis-Skelly has been seen as a balancing act between nurturing talent and maintaining a competitive edge.

The young midfielder's journey has been closely watched, with many in the football community hopeful that he can develop into a star for both club and country. As Lewis-Skelly continues to make his mark, the guidance from seasoned professionals like Rice and Tuchel will be instrumental in shaping his career.
