German giants Bayern Munich are considering a movement for Arsenal -Predicted Leandro Trossard, but only if their pursuit of Liverpool star Luis Diaz is not successful
Arsenal Leandro Trossard has emerged as a target for Bayern Munich, who want to strengthen their forward line this summer. Leroy Sane, Mathys Tel and Thomas Muller all left the club, while Jamal Musiala will miss most of the following season after breaking his leg at the Club World Cup.
Bayern was connected to a relocation for Nico Williams, but the Spain star has signed a new 10-year contract with Athletic Bilbao with a release clause with a value of approximately £ 75 million. And now it seems like a movement for Trossard can be on the cards.
Trossard is drawn up as a potential alternative to Liverpool star Luis Diaz, according to a report from Bild. Bayern, it is claimed that it has submitted an offer of £ 45 million for Diaz, but Liverpool does not want to sell and especially not for that price.
Bayern belongs to a number of clubs that weigh a move for Trossard, with conversations about a new deal in Arsenal that got stuck as a result. Trossard recently appointed Dirk Hebebel as his agent and it is noted that he has an existing relationship with Bayern's sports director Max Eberl.
Trossard spent three seasons in Arsenal, scored 28 goals and produces 23 assists in 124 performances in all competitions, and Gunners -Baas Mikel Arteta is a big fan of the Belgian international.
Last year Arteta spoke the competitive series of Trossard and “capacity to do something special” after he had branded a joke a “Choaner”.
Arteta said: “Yes, Leo is of course a bit of a moan, but I like that because he is very competitive and has your training sessions, he is always busy with the referee's decision because he wants to win.
“That is what I love. He always wants to be the best and if he is not there, he is not happy. But that is what pushes him. That is where he comes to the field, he can have an impact because he has that drive, that anger says,” I'm going to show you. “
“I think that's great about him. He is really a good character. They all want to play. Always want to play. Leo has shown much more consistency in the last 12 months, he has earned that.
“He has had a lot of competition in his position. That is it. Increase the level. If he plays at that level, he will play like someone else. He has the capacity to do something special in the last third part.
“He played and with us he played as a left wing player, as an attacking midfielder, he has played as nine and he is a player I appreciate a lot, we appreciate a lot, because he is very versatile and very competitive and he is a huge threat to the team. Really happy with him.”
