Leandro Trossard, Arsenal and Besiktas
Wednesday
Leandro Trossard has joined Besiktas from Arsenal on a three-year contract worth €18m, with a further one-year option included. The Belgium forward leaves after scoring 36 goals and providing 34 assists across 174 appearances for the Gunners.
Arsenal had already allowed Trossard to travel to Istanbul for a medical after agreeing the fee. His departure is expected to speed up their pursuit of Club Brugge attacker Christos Tzolis, while bigger attacking targets remain under review.
