Arsenal Receive Shock Leandro Trossard Transfer Offer After Window Closes

Arsenal stunned by late Leandro Trossard transfer offer from Besiktas, weeks after winger signed a rare new contract extension.

Arsenal have received a surprise transfer offer for Leandro Trossard just weeks after the winger signed a new contract. The unexpected bid came from Turkish club Besiktas, even though the Premier League transfer window has already shut.

Leandro Trossard recently signed a rare new deal with Arsenal. The contract runs until 2026, with an option to extend to 2027. It also includes a significant pay increase, signaling Arsenal’s commitment to the Belgian forward.

However, the situation changed quickly. Arsenal’s late move for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze added more competition to their attacking lineup. With eight forwards now fighting for three spots, Trossard’s future at the club suddenly looks uncertain.

Besiktas Make a Bold Move

Besiktas submitted a €22 million offer for Trossard, according to reports from Turkey. Their transfer window remains open until September 12, giving them time to negotiate. The Turkish side had previously targeted Jadon Sancho but turned to Trossard after failing to secure the Manchester United winger.

Arsenal are reportedly considering the offer. The club spent heavily this summer and may be looking to balance their books. Selling Trossard could help ease financial pressure and free up space in the squad.

Performance and Timing

Trossard had a strong season last year, scoring 17 goals across all competitions. But recent performances suggest a slight decline. Arsenal may view this as a good time to cash in, especially with new signings pushing for game time.

The offer from Besiktas has created uncertainty around Trossard’s future. Arsenal must decide whether to keep the experienced winger or accept the bid. Either way, the drama continues even after the window has officially closed.
