Leandro Trossard Set to Sign New Arsenal deal, Ending Transfer Speculation
Arsenal are poised to retain Leandro Trossard, despite reported interest from Turkish side Besiktas, who are understood to have made a bid of €22 million (£19m) for the Belgian winger. Negotiations with trossard’s representatives have been ongoing since the beginning of the summer transfer window.
football.london reports that Trossard is set to agree to new, enhanced terms on his existing contract, which currently runs until 2027. This decision comes after a period of speculation regarding his future at the emirates Stadium, especially following recent squad additions under manager Mikel Arteta.Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that a move to the Turkish Super Lig is now “no chance” of happening, with Trossard having reached an agreement with Arsenal. the new contract is expected to reflect his contributions to the team, bringing his wages in line with other players of comparable experience and importance within the squad.
Arteta has publicly expressed his satisfaction with Trossard’s performances, noting the player has scored 27 goals and provided 13 assists over the past two campaigns. last month, Arteta stated, “That situation has been resolved in a really great way and I think he deserves recognition, and we are vrey happy to have him.”
Former Arsenal striker Alan Smith also voiced his support for retaining Trossard, stating, “I would be tempted to keep Leandro Trossard as he’s a versatile player who’s done well and scored crucial goals. I don’t think you’d want to lose him.”
