Arsenal receive €15m bid for attacker Mourinho wants
Fenerbahce have submitted a €15 million bid to sign Arsenal attacker Leandro Trossard, according to the Turkish Post.
They have stepped up their efforts to sign the Belgian after reports suggested that contract talks with Arsenal had slowed down.
Trossard’s current deal with the Gunners runs until 2026, but he is open to leaving for the right offer.
The situation has alerted Fenerbahce, who are looking to test Arsenal’s resolve with a formal offer.
The 30-year-old winger recently changed his agent, moving to DW Sports Management. This agency has strong ties in Turkish football.
Fenerbahce are willing to meet Trossard’s wage demands if he agrees to a three-year deal.
Mourinho keen on adding experience
The Turkish club have already signed Jhon Duran on loan from Al-Nassr and are looking to further boost their attacking options.
They are determined to close the gap on Galatasaray in the Turkish Super Lig.
Manager Jose Mourinho is a fan of Trossard’s versatility and two-footed ability.
The experienced winger joined Arsenal in January 2023 from Brighton & Hove Albion for an initial £21 million, with £5m in add-ons.
Trossard played 56 matches for Arsenal last season, bagging 10 goals and 10 assists across all competitions.
With just one year left on his current deal and no breakthrough in talks, the Belgian is assessing his options.
He is seeking a financially attractive move and wants regular football at a competitive level.
The Turkish club are waiting for Arsenal’s response to their offer, and more talks are expected in the coming days.
