Arsenal's forward line has changed! Trosad allegedly reached a preliminary agreement with Fenerbahce. Mourinho poached the Premier League again?

Recent news has been reported that Arsenal attacker Leandro Trossard has reached a "preliminary agreement" with Turkish giant Fenerbahce on personal terms, and the team coached by Jose Mourinho is actively promoting the transfer. Meanwhile, Arsenal is preparing to strengthen the offensive line by introducing Chelsea's Noni Madueke, with the two clubs reportedly agreeing on a deal of more than £50 million.

Arsenal's "new and old": Maduec joins the team, where will Trosad go?

Maduaik is expected to sign a five-year contract at Emirates Stadium until 2030, while Trosad's contract with Mikel Arteta has only the last 12 months left, meaning he will be free to sign pre-contracts with any club from January next year.

Earlier this year, there were reports that Arsenal planned to retain Trosad and was preparing to offer him a new long-term contract to extend his cooperation with the Gunners until 2029. However, there seems to be no progress in this regard at the moment. With the arrival of Maduec, the competition for the front line will further intensify, Trosad's future will naturally become the focus of more and more speculation.

Fenebache and Mourinho: Chasing Belgian strongman

According to journalist Elis Buse Arac, the former Brighton player and Fenerbache - coached by former Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho - have reached a "preliminary agreement" on personal terms for a possible transfer. Alak added that the Turkish giant is currently negotiating with Arsenal on transfer fees, and the negotiations are said to be progressing positively, and optimism is growing for the 30-year-old's transfer.

Given Trosad's age and contractual status, it is unlikely that Arsenal will demand excessive transfer fees for him. Trosad joined the Emirates Stadium for 24 million euros (about 20.7 million pounds) in the mid-2022-23 season.

Trosad's value: stable output and amazing health record

The Belgian international joined Arteta's side after Chelsea "snatched" Mykhaylo Mudryk from Arsenal. But he has proven himself a reliable addition to the Gunners, contributing 28 goals and 23 assists in 124 games in various competitions. In the 2024-25 season, Trosad directly contributed 20 goals (10 goals and 10 assists) in 56 appearances, and he did not miss any Premier League game last season.

Selling Trosad will become a "fatal mistake"?

Although the Belgian player may not be the left winger who can make fans "jump up" like Rafael Leao or Rodrygo, selling him in the current transfer window undoubtedly does more harm than good.

As mentioned earlier, Trosard was available for every Premier League game last season, and his outstanding health record is a huge plus for a team that will compete harder in the Premier League and Champions League next season. Trosad's offensive output has also remained stable. In the absence of insufficient lineup in the 2024-25 season, trying to retain all attackers must be the top priority of Arteta and his team.

Of course, Trosad had a precedent for forcibly leaving the team before. Two and a half years ago he "breaked" with Brighton for transfer to Arsenal. If he is told that playing time will be significantly reduced next season, the possibility of the Belgian player taking similar measures again is not ruled out. But unless he resorts to this point, or Fenerbahce offers an undeniable offer, Arsenal must do his best to keep him.
