Arsenal forward reached a mini landmark in 3-0 Nottingham Forest win

Leandro Trossard was a second-half substitute when Arsenal beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 this weekend and his assist for the third goal meant that he reached a mini landmark in his Arsenal career. The arrival of a number of players has brought increased competition for places in the Arsenal starting XI. None more so than the left wing, which has seen three different starters in the last three games. Eberechi Eze came in for Gabriel Martinelli versus Forest, with Arsenal flexing their newfound strength in depth. Leandro Trossard came on for Eze in the 79th minute and his impact was swift as he created the third goal a minute later.

Trossard hits 50 goal contributions

That assist took the Belgian to 50 goal contributions for Arsenal in all competitions. The former Brighton man has scored 28 goals and provided 22 assists in Arsenal colours since making a move in January 2023. Perhaps the most striking detail concerning his tally is that only Bukayo Saka has contributed more since his arrival. His most productive campaign in front of goal was in 2023-24, with the Belgian scoring 17 goals in 46 appearances. While there was growing discontent surrounding performances last season, the Belgian remains a crucial member of the Arsenal squad. His ability to impact games from the bench will be an incredible asset at Arteta’s disposal and we have already gotten a glimpse of it this campaign.

A future in question

In recognition of his contributions thus far, Arsenal offered the Belgian a new contract over the summer. Though it was not a traditional contract extension, a pay rise was in the deal instead. This came amidst growing speculation linking the Belgian with a move away. A change of representatives over the summer also added fuel to the fire, with the likes of Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray and even Brentford all being linked with a move for the player. Beşiktaş were even rumoured to have made a bid recently, but the player will likely remain at the club. That said, following the arrival of a number of key players and the fact that his contract is up in 2027, a move away is probably in the not-too-distant future.

Thoughts on Trossard’s cameo appearance?
