Beşiktaş are intensifying efforts to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season, with growing reports indicating the Turkish giants are preparing an official approach for Arsenal winger Leandro Trossard. While discussions around the move have gained momentum across football media, neither club has formally confirmed that an offer has already been submitted.
The Belgian international has reportedly emerged as one of Beşiktaş’s leading attacking targets as the club looks to add experience and quality to its forward line. Club officials are said to be assessing the financial framework of a possible deal and determining whether Arsenal would be open to negotiations during the current transfer window.
Transfer figures circulating in reports suggest a package centred around a €20 million transfer fee. Additional claims indicate Trossard could be offered an annual salary in the region of €7 million to €8 million if the move progresses. Those figures, however, remain unconfirmed and have not been officially communicated by either side.
From Arsenal’s standpoint, any decision is expected to depend on wider squad planning and transfer activity. Trossard has remained an important option within the team because of his ability to play across multiple attacking positions, giving the club flexibility throughout domestic and European competitions.
The player himself has not publicly indicated that he wants to leave. During recent appearances while away on international duty with Belgium, Trossard maintained focus on current commitments and avoided making definitive statements about his club future.
The timing of any move may also prove significant. Arsenal’s transfer strategy in attacking areas is expected to influence whether discussions advance, especially if the club pursues additions before allowing experienced forwards to depart.
Beşiktaş are understood to be monitoring the situation closely and could move quickly should conditions become favourable. Interest from elsewhere in Europe has also been mentioned in transfer discussions, potentially increasing competition for the player’s signature.
At this stage, the story remains one of serious interest rather than a completed transaction. No official agreement has been announced on transfer fee, salary structure or personal terms, but attention is now focused on whether Beşiktaş converts interest into a formal offer in the coming days.
