Trossard

Arsenal are pushing to sign Leandro Trossard from Brighton after missing out on Mykhailo Mudryk, with talks over a £20m deal progressing.

Trossard is seen as an attractive option, given he is already Premier League proven and is known to be available following a [break down in his relationship with Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/brighton-coach-de-zerbi-trossard-message-transfer-arsenal-chelsea--tottenham-linked/bltda0f1fc9cf8bdfb5). Arsenal have good relations with Brighton following the deal that saw Ben White move from the Amex Stadium in 2021 and discussions between the two clubs are now ramping up over Trossard. AND WHAT'S MORE: Speaking earlier this week about Trossard's situation, De Zerbi said: "Recently, he didn’t give 100 per cent in training and on matchday, that’s it on my side.

Arsenal are set to secure Brighton forward Leandro Trossard as the Gunners aim to give Mikel Arteta the firepower to win the Premier League title.

Notably, CBS Sports has been told that in preseason Arsenal intended to test Smith Rowe in one of the central midfield roles that Granit Xhaka and Martin Odegaard have made their own only for injuries to get in the way. That might appear to be one of the spots in Arsenal's squad where they have requisite depth but adding another body behind Martinelli and Emile Smith Rowe does open up new avenues for Arteta. A team that have set out on the second briskest pace of any club in this division's history have earned themselves an eight-point cushion at the top of the table. These are solid numbers, a slight upswing on last season (when he registered 0.39) but with little to them to suggest they are anything other than representative of a forward playing in a better team. Considering that the Ukrainian's price ultimately ballooned to nine figures for a player with 50 appearances in the Ukrainian top flight and Champions League, Arsenal may well have avoided an expensive risk. Tottenham had also been tracking Trossard but Arsenal have moved swiftly for the forward, scorer of seven goals in 16 Premier League games this season, after missing out on Mykhaylo Mudryk, who went to Chelsea.

Arsenal are in talks to sign Brighton winger Leandro Trossard after missing out on Mykhailo Mudryk, sources have told ESPN.

We are Brighton and we need players who work like the other players." However, his success at the club has soured since De Zerbi replaced Graham Potter in September. "Leandro knows very well my opinion.

Fabrizio Romano was first to the news about Trossard-Arsenal on Thursday morning. Ornstein revealed on Thursday afternoon that Arsenal have ‘reached an agreement’ to sign Trossard. According to reports, Spurs were first to bid for him but they went for a cheeky £12m offer.

Arsenal have reached an agreement with Brighton to sign Belgium forward Leandro Trossard, Planet Sport understands.

League leaders Arsenal, though, were quickest to move and have managed to strike a deal with Brighton, who have a recent history in earning a premium for their key stars. They were close to agreeing a move for Mykhailo Mudryk, only to be gazumped by Chelsea after a delegation from the Blues travelled to Turkey to strike a deal with Shakhtar Donetsk which instead took the winger to Stamford Bridge. The Gunners have been in the market to bolster their attacking options in the January transfer window and have now agreed a fee for the 28-year-old.

Trossard is Arsenal's Plan B after missing out on Mykhailo Mudryk, though there are other suitors for his signature.

[Tottenham Hotspur](https://theathletic.com/football/team/tottenham-hotspur/) were one of two Premier League clubs — one team based abroad also made an enquiry — investigating the possibility of signing the Belgian prior to Arsenal declaring their interest. There was a start in the group finale against [Croatia](https://theathletic.com/football/team/croatia/), but he made little impact and was withdrawn after 59 minutes as a 0-0 draw sent Belgium’s ageing side crashing out of the tournament early. They will argue he represents proven Premier League pedigree, with 116 league appearances and 38 goal involvements (25 goals, 13 assists) since his £13million arrival from Genk in the summer of 2019. [The Athletic revealed on Monday](https://theathletic.com/4092212/2023/01/16/levi-colwill-leandro-trossard-callum-hudson-odoi/) how Spurs had shown their hand after making a verbal offer at boardroom level of around £12million. Now in his fourth season at Brighton, Trossard has spent roughly equal amounts of time playing up front, as a central attacking midfielder and stationed out on the left flank. Having seen the 22-year-old wind up at [Chelsea](https://theathletic.com/football/team/chelsea/), they have reacted quickly — and pragmatically — to identify Trossard as plan B. The player’s agent, Josy Comhair, duly released a statement insisting he had left that session because of the injury and that De Zerbi had not spoken to him since his client had a minor ‘altercation’ with an unnamed team-mate some weeks previously. Brighton have a one-year option on Trossard’s contract, which expires in the summer, but had been rejecting their attempts to tie him to a new deal. So far in 2022-23, Arsenal have shown on the pitch that they have learnt from the end of last season.

Brighton forward Leandro Trossard will undergo his medical at London Colney on Friday morning ahead of his £27million move to Arsenal, according to reports.

He has scored seven Premier League goals this season and notched a hat-trick against Liverpool at Anfield in October. Furthermore, Arsenal made three bids to sign Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz on deadline day last summer, so Arteta clearly feels he needs a bit more depth in the middle of the park. There is clearly a lot of money in the bank after a bid worth up to £88million was made to sign Mudryk. Arteta will be extremely keen for the medical to be completed as soon as possible as Trossard will need to be registered by 12pm if he can play against Manchester United on Sunday. In Arsenal’s last top-of-the-table clash at the Emirates, the 0-0 draw against Newcastle United, Arteta’s options off the bench were very limited and the only change he made was bringing on defender Takehiro Tomiyasu. With the Gunners in a superb position to win the Premier League this season,

Jakub Kiwior is set to sign a five-year deal at Arsenal ahead of his £21million move to the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal are set to sign Polish centre-back Jakub Kiwior for €25million (£21.9m) plus add-ons. Arsenal were unable to make any signings in the first two weeks of the January window. However, that doesn't appear to be the only move they will make in the January transfer window, with Polish transfer guru Tomasz Wlodarczyk reporting that a deal for the aforementioned Kiwior is close. He's done brilliantly and he's a player that everyone needs to look out for in the future. And Edu can repeat the blueprint established to negotiate a deal for Odegaard if he was to press ahead with any such move.
