Arsenal make Leandro Trossard transfer stance clear after £19m 'bid'

Arsenal are reportedly not planning to sell Leandro Trossard, even with the summer transfer window still open in some countries.

It has been an active summer for the club, and new additions to Mikel Arteta's squad had cast doubt over Trossard's future at the Emirates Stadium. Earlier this week, football.london reported that Besiktas were pursuing a move for the Belgian and had reportedly submitted an offer worth €22 million (£19m).

However, football.london understands that Trossard is to sign a new deal with the Gunners. After a summer of speculation, he is set to sign improved terms on his current deal, which will still run until 2027.

" rel="Follow" target="_self">Fabrizio Romano reported that a move to the Turkish Super Lig has 'no chance' of happening, as Trossard has agreed a new deal with Arsenal.

His salary is expected to be improved, reflecting both his contributions and his status within the squad, aligning him with teammates of comparable seniority and influence.

"That situation has been resolved in a really great way and I think he deserves recognition, and we are very happy to have him," Arteta said last month.

Following speculation over his future, former Gunner striker Alan Smith encouraged the club to keep hold of Trossard.

"I would be tempted to keep Leandro Trossard because he’s a versatile player who’s done well and scored important goals," he said.

"I don’t think you’d want to lose him. And the same with Martinelli actually. Martinelli didn’t have the best of seasons, but I think you definitely want to keep him."
