Arsenal Reject £29.5M Trossard Bid

Arsenal have rejected a £29.5 million bid from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad for Belgian forward Leandro Trossard. The offer, which included a season-long loan with an obligation to buy next summer, was declined because Trossard is considered a key player, and the Premier League transfer window has already closed, preventing Arsenal from securing a replacement until January. Trossard, who joined Arsenal in January 2023, has contributed significantly to the team with 19 goals and 12 assists in 71 appearances. Although he has expressed some frustration over his playing time, Arsenal remain firm in their decision to keep him. This move has been well-received by Arsenal supporters, who are relieved that the versatile forward will remain with the team.
