Leandro Trossard was already considered a backup option at Arsenal last season, but his opinions have become invaluable as injuries hit Mikel Arteta’s offensive division so badly. Since then, the gunners have added Ebebeki Eze to their ranks, and the future of Torosad at the club has become very uncertain.
Transfer windows have been closed in most European leagues, but still remain in Turkey for a few days (until September 11th), with Besiktas having recently become interested in Belgian wingers. However, according to Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal has no plans to let him leave, as he values the depth of his squad as an important aspect of his quest for the 2025/26 trophy.
The 30-year-old has two years left on his current contract. This is the original contract he signed when he joined Brighton in 2023, but he has already reached an agreement with the club about a new deal that should be signed soon.
Torosard has 28 goals and 23 assists in Arsenal’s 125 appearances in all competitions, but he only played this season. It’s a 37-minute cameo with Leeds 5-0 thrashing in the Premier League.
