According to sources, Leandro Trossard has told Arsenal that he wants to depart this summer following the club’s recent signing frenzy.
After reaching an agreement with Chelsea for a sum of £55 million, the Gunners are almost ready to sign Noni Madueke, a winger who was granted permission to have a physical over the weekend.
The Belgium international could have actually left Arsenal in January, but he chose to shun Saudi Pro League interest at the time, according to TBR play, which also claims that Trossard has suddenly decided he wants to leave Arsenal this summer in pursuit of regular play.
Italian teams and Turkish team Fenerbahce are closely monitoring the situation at Arsenal, while Bayern Munich has joined the chase to capture Trossard.
After a rush of new arrivals, Trossard has now told Arsenal that he is eager to consider his options for leaving the team this summer, and the Gunners are ready to balance their squad.
He might have gone to Saudi Arabia in January, but the club’s serious attacking injury crisis might have stopped him from leaving. He is prepared to leave the Gunners this summer, though, in order to take on a fresh challenge, as Fenerbahce reportedly expressed interest. Even though the Belgian is in the last year of his contract at the Emirates, the club is asking £20 million to trade him.
Bayern Munich is the most recent team to bid for Trossard; the German powerhouses see the £20 million Arsenal player as a potential addition to their offensive line. Although Trossard might not be their major target, the main goal is to replace Leroy Sane, who has joined Galatasaray.
Arsenal had no interest in selling Gabriel Martinelli, despite Bayern Munich’s earlier interest in the Brazilian. Christopher Nkunku is also considered a potential candidate, and they are also monitoring Luis Diaz’s condition. However, since Trossard is now accessible, the Bavarians might consider him a cheap target and, if the circumstances allow, make the move.
