English Premier League leaders Arsenal are in advanced negotiations to sign Belgium and Brighton and Hove Albion forward Leonardo Trossard.
The Gunners are in the market for a new forward since Gabriel Jesus injured his knee while playing for Brazil in the World Cup last month.
Talks to sign Ukrainian winger Mykhailo Mudryk bore no fruits as Shaktar Donetsk decided to sell the player to Arsenal’s London rivals Chelsea.
Trossard fell out with the Brighton coach Roberto De Zerbi and will definitely move in the winter transfer window. He has scored seven goals this season from 16 league outings.
Sources close to the player say that personal terms have already been agreed and the player is keen to join up with Mikel Arteta’s squad.
Arsenal have limited options to change their attack from the bench which has placed a heavy burden on Bukayo Saka and especially Gabriel Martinelli who have played in all league matches so far this season.
The Gunners are top of the table with 47 points and welcome third placed Manchester United to the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
