Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta reveals he had no intention of selling Leandro Trossard during the summer transfer window.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that he had no intention of selling Leandro Trossard during the summer transfer window, despite reports linking the midfielder to a possible exit.
Arteta praised Trossard’s performance against Tottenham Hotspur, saying, “For me, it was forbidden for him to leave. No chance. I know the player that he is, and surrounded with the players that we have, he is a player that is going to make a difference for us.”
Arteta highlighted Trossard’s aggression and effectiveness both with and without the ball, calling it one of the Belgian’s finest displays. “He was so aggressive with and without the ball, so effective, he could have scored another one or two goals, and he was involved in so many positive actions,” Arteta said.
Trossard has been in strong form for Arsenal this season, contributing five goals and five assists in 15 appearances across all competitions. His ability to create chances and finish them has become a key asset for Arteta’s side.
The victory over Spurs strengthens Arsenal’s position in the Premier League, showing the team is capable of dominating high-profile matches.
Arsenal fans will hope that Trossard can maintain his form and help the team in both domestic and European competitions. The Gunners will next face Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
