Arsenal are reported to be in talks to offer Leandro Trossard a contract extension. But Arsenal fans are unhappy with this decision and are asking some hard questions.
Trossard joined Gunners in January 2023 from Brighton. He has been very good since then for Gunners. He has been a key asset for Mikel Arteta. Whenever Gunners were struggling, Trossard came to the resuce.
But this season has not been the same for the Belgian. Trossard is having it hard to make an impact this season. He has only been able to score 2 goals and pick 1 assist in 15 games. This resulted in questions being raised on his future at North London.
Arsenal to offer Leandro Trossard contract extension
Earlier in summer Saudi side Al-Ittihad submitted a bid for Trossard. But the bid was quickly rejected by Gunners. At that time they viewed Trossard as a key asset. Now, the Saudi side are willing to pay £40 million for the Belgian.
This time many expected that Arsenal will accept the bid an part ways with Belgian. But report from Football Insider suggests otherwise. As per the report, Arsenal are in talks with Trossard to extend the current contract.
The Belgian’s current contract expires in 2026 but Gunners want to extend it even further. This confirms that they still view him as a key asset. But this decision is not being appreciated by most of the Arsenal fans.
Arsenal fans unhappy with club’s decision
Most of the Arsenal fans are unhappy with the decision of Trossard extending his stay. They feel that winter market was the perfect opportunity to get rid of him. They are expressing their disappointment publicly which can never be good from a player’s point of view.
Some Arsenal fans say that Trossard should never play again. They are asking Mikel Arteta to play Ethan Nwaneri in place of him. Some are saying that the club should focus on bringing Mohammed Kudus and hence selling Trossard is important. Lastly, some fans said that Trossard is nothing more than a supersub.
Despite all this hate, some Arsenal fans still have faith in the Belgian. They have said that Trossard is not performing well due to him being used as an attacking midfielder. Trossard is very good on the left flank but had to adapt as number 10 due to Martin Odegaard’s injury.
