Leandro Trossard potential next club

Leandro Trossard is one of several Arsenal players who could be shown the exit door this summer as Mikel Arteta reshapes his squad ahead of next season.

According to reports, the Gunners are willing to listen to offers for the Belgian winger, who has one year remaining on his current deal.

Arsenal are looking to strengthen their wide options on the left flank and have been linked to a multitude of wingers, including Club Brugge's Christos Tzolis, raising further doubts over the future of Trossard and his left wing colleague Gabriel Martinelli.

Trossard scored six goals and registered six assists during Arsenal's Premier League title-winning campaign and the former Brighton ace will not be short of suitors once his involvement in the World Cup concludes.

We assess where Trossard could go next if Arsenal decide to sanction his departure.

Premier League

Besiktas

Turkish Super Lig giants Besiktas have emerged as the frontrunners for Trossard's signature with reports from Turkey suggesting the Istanbul outfit have launched an official bid.

Besiktas had been subjected to financial restrictions due to excessive spending in previous years, but the club announced on 17th June that all financial limitations have now been lifted - and now they're free to spend.

Vincenzo Italiano is plotting several marquee signings this summer and Trossard ticks that criteria. However, Trossard is likely to require significant persuasion, with the Belgian rumoured to be keen to remain in England.

Newcastle United

Following the departure of Anthony Gordon, Newcastle are in the market for a new left winger and Trossard would be a steal for the Magpies if they manage to acquire him at an affordable price.

Newcastle's recruitment was the subject of scrutiny last summer as they spent lavishly on the likes of Yoane Wissa, Anthony Elanga and Nick Woltemade without much return, and the Tyneside club will need to be more prudent with their spending this summer.

Trossard would add valuable quality, depth and experience to Newcastle's attacking ranks as they look to bounce back from an underwhelming season.

Aston Villa

Gearing up for a return to the UEFA Champions League, a move to Aston Villa is an attractive proposition for Trossard.

The Villans are reportedly keen on bringing Trossard to Villa Park as they aim to enhance their squad depth to balance the challenge competing on the domestic and continental stage.

Despite Emiliano Buendia's strong form in the previous campaign, a new left winger is on the agenda for Unai Emery and the 31-year-old ticks the box of a proven operator who can hit the ground running in claret and blue.

Galatasaray

Besiktas are not the only Turkish club interested in Trossard with Galatasaray also lurking in the background.

Okan Buruk's side retained the league title last term by finishing three points ahead of rivals Fenerbahce, but their desire to perform well on the UEFA Champions League stage means they're eager to bolster their ranks this summer.

With Noa Lang's loan from Napoli coming to an end, Galatasaray are scouring for a new left winger and Trossard would be a strong fit.
