Myles Lewis-Skelly humorously mixes up call-up and delivery

Myles Lewis-Skelly, an 18-year-old football player, is excited after being called up to the England national team for the first time. He was selected for the World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia. Lewis-Skelly plays for Arsenal and can play as a defender or a midfielder. Before his call-up was confirmed, Lewis-Skelly had a funny mix-up. He received a phone call while speaking with a friend. Thinking it was coach Thomas Tuchel calling to give him the good news, he excitedly hung up. Instead, the caller was from Uber Eats, delivering food for his mom. He found the situation embarrassing, which made his teammates Declan Rice and Dan Burn laugh. Luckily, he soon received the official call confirming his place in the squad. Lewis-Skelly has previously played for England’s youth teams and could make his debut at Wembley Stadium against Albania. Feeling joyful about the call-up, Lewis-Skelly shared his excitement. He ran around his house, thrilled about this big achievement for himself and his family. This season, he has played 26 times for Arsenal and even scored a goal in a 5-1 win against Manchester City. Reflecting on his experience with the national team, Lewis-Skelly described it as amazing. He said he is taking everything step by step and feels grateful for the opportunity. He emphasized that his success is due to his hard work and self-belief.
