BREAKING: #Arsenal Signs Leandro #Trossard As #Mudryk Replacement?—-Ahead of January trandfer deadline, Brighton star Leandro Trossard has agreed personal terms with Arsenal as the Gunners move on from the Mykhailo Mudryk blow and prepare to bolster Mikel Arteta’s squad.
Arteta is keen to strengthen his squad at the Emirates as he looks to guide Arsenal to a first league title since 2004.
Arsenal expected to sign Mudryk – preparing an £80m move for the Ukraine international – but saw London rivals Chelsea hijack the deal and take him to Stamford Bridge instead.
Since the transfer blow, Arsenal have looked at alternative signings and been heavily linked with Barcelona winger Raphinha.
Trossard has also emerged as a target and is now heading to the Premier League leaders, having agreed personal terms over the move, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The report says Arsenal are in advanced talks with Brighton and set to make an official bid to sign the Belgian on a permanent deal.
Trossard has emerged as a key player for Brighton since joining from Genk in 2019, making 116 Premier League appearances for the Seagulls.
