Arsenal will have to spend millions on the transfer market to improve their squad this summer.
This is after Andrea Berta spent over £200 million last summer on eight new players to help the Gunners win the Premier League title.
To balance the books, Arsenal will need to sell a few players in this window, and many have been linked with moves away from the Emirates Stadium.
One of them is Leandro Trossard, but Arsenal should not sell him.
👀 Who is the FIRST Arsenal player Andrea Berta must sell this summer?
Arsenal should accept losing millions and keep Leandro Trossard
Trossard’s future is up in the air.
The Belgian has entered the final year of his Arsenal contract, and the general feeling has been that he will be sold before this transfer window shuts.
However, Trossard is having a sensational World Cup.
The Arsenal number 19 has created more chances than anyone else in the competition so far and has comfortably been Belgium’s best player.
That has completely changed our stance on his future at the Emirates.
There have been rumours that Besiktas are ready to pay £18 million for Trossard, and we were of the opinion that Arsenal should take the money and run because he could leave for free in 12 months.
However, we think keeping hold of the former Brighton man could prove to be far more valuable because of his ability to turn up in big moments.
Yes, losing him for nothing next year doesn’t make much financial sense, but we think the footballing benefits outweigh that.
👀 How much is Leandro Trossard worth to Arsenal? Should the Gunners be selling him at all?!
Leandro Trossard could make a big difference in Arsenal’s title defence
Arsenal have never won back-to-back Premier League titles.
Mikel Arteta’s aim is to achieve that in the upcoming campaign, and the likes of Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes will be key.
However, Trossard’s ability to score clutch goals makes him a very important player as well, even if he isn’t a regular starter.
That is why we want Trossard to stay, even though it will cost Arsenal millions in transfer fees.
