Arsenal is urged to move on from Leandro Trossard and sign Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon as his summer replacement. Here’s why this decision could reshape their squad for the upcoming season.
Despite their dramatic run to the Champions League final and a Premier League title, Arsenal faces a tight transfer market. The club has spent around £250m this season, and significant sales may be necessary to balance the books. While Trossard has performed admirably, ex-England international Chris Waddle questions his suitability as a winger. “He’s not really a winger,” Waddle states, suggesting Arsenal should seek a more traditional option.
Waddle highlights Gordon, currently linked with a £75m move to Bayern Munich, and West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen as ideal targets. He believes they could thrive in Arsenal's system, contributing goals and work rate. Former Arsenal striker Jeremie Aliadiere adds that the club should aim for even higher-caliber signings, mentioning talents like Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Nico Williams.
Trossard himself, with just a year left on his contract, expresses his desire to stay and help Arsenal win the Champions League. However, the club's ambitions in the transfer market may dictate his future.
