Earlier today, the football world was set abuzz with news of Al Ittihad’s bid worth €35m for Leandro Trossard from Arsenal. Fabrizio Romano broke the news claiming Arsenal was aware of this impending offer in recent days.
Amid this bid, Arsenal’s stance remained firm, a stance which brought relief and reassurance to the hearts of Arsenal fans worldwide. The club made it clear: ‘They have no intention to sell Trossard, he’s not for sale as he’s a really important player for Mikel Arteta’. His indispensable role on the field and his presence in the team’s dynamics, described by Romano as that of a ‘super professional’, have solidified his position not just as a key player but as an important figure in the Arsenal family.
Trossard’s impact on the team has been crucial in the teams progression as title contenders. In the previous season, he managed 12 goals and 1 assist in 34 Premier League appearances, often coming off the bench. Such performances off the bench rightfully earned him a starting spot as the team’s left winger for the ongoing season. His recent goal against Aston Villa, which was scored in his first touch on the ball further emphasized how important he can be to the team being able to finish our chances which has been a struggle in recent seasons.
The departure of players like Nketiah, Smith Rowe, and Nelson during the summer transfer window has thinned Arsenal’s attacking options. Losing a player of Trossard’s status would have led to a severe blow to the team’s depth, a situation that Arsenal have managed to avoid with the rejection of Al Ittihad’s offer.
In other news, Arsenal’s signing of Raheem Sterling on a season-long loan from Chelsea on deadline day has sparked excitement on how he may perform and if he could find his past form which was once evident in his days at city under Arteta’s coaching. How Sterling’s arrival will complement Trossard’s role, both as a potential impact player off the bench and as a contender for the starting XI, we will see as the season progresses.
In the words of Fabrizio Romano, “Trossard stays at Arsenal, there’s no chance of the move to Al Ittihad.” These words remove the worries which we all had earlier today when news of the bid first came out. Hopefully, it will be worth it as we continue to fight for a much-awaited premier league title.
