Arsenal turn down informal proposal from Al Ittihad for Leandro Trossard

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5739299/2024/09/02/leandro-trossard-al-ittihad-arsenal-transfer/

Arsenal have turned down an informal proposal from Al Ittihad to sign forward Leandro Trossard.

The Saudi Pro League side made a preliminary offer for a season-long loan, including a fee of €5million (£4.2m; $5.5m), with an obligation to buy next summer for a price between €20-25m.

However, Arsenal made clear the 29-year-old Belgium international is not for sale at any price as remains is a key part of Mikel Arteta’s squad.

Trossard has a number of years left on his deal at the Emirates Stadium and started the 1-1 draw against Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.

Arsenal signed Trossard from Brighton in January 2023 and he has played an important role since, scoring 19 goals and providing 12 assists in 71 appearances for manager Arteta’s men.

Towards the end of last season, he replaced Gabriel Martinelli in the starting line-up, with his 17 goals and two assists in 46 games contributing to Arsenal coming within two points of the Premier League title.

He came off the bench to score the opening goal inthe 2-0 victory at Aston Villa last month, saying after the victory: “I think everyone wants to start games and play games obviously then it’s up to the player how they respond.

“I always want to make an impact if it’s off the bench or as a starter. I think I’ve done my job today to help the team there’s not much more that I can do in that aspect.”

I have been saying for some time he will leave either next summer or in 2026.

Pep leaving in 2025 will ramp that up.

And, IF Citeh are massively punished ( a huge if) he will leave for sure (almsot zero chance Pep stays as well).

Only 2 clubs need to included in Håland's list of possible next destinations.

Barca (by far the best fit football-wise) IF they can afford him (they have multiple potential players of extreme value to sell if need be)

Real Madrid (especially IF they actually do sell Vini Jr for £300m, £400m (or more) to the Saudis, as that opens up LW for Mbappe and then Håland as CF)

Real Madrid begin search for Carvajal replacements

https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/41658961/real-madrid-begin-search-carvajal-replacements-sources

Real Madrid have begun the search for a right-back to replace the injured Dani Carvajal, sources have told ESPN, but the LaLiga club are aware that finding the right candidate in the January transfer window will be difficult.

Carvajal was stretchered off in Madrid's 2-0 win over Villarreal on Saturday, with the club later confirming that the Spain international had suffered "a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, a ruptured external collateral ligament and a ruptured popliteus tendon in his right leg," requiring surgery.

The defender's long-term absence leaves Lucas Vázquez -- a converted winger -- as Madrid's only senior option at right-back.

A source told ESPN that Madrid have already been offered more than 10 players since Carvajal's injury, but the most attractive options will be hard to secure given that they are under contract at other clubs.

Madrid have been tracking Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold -- whose contract at Anfield is due to expire next summer -- for some time.

The club had seen the England full-back more as a market opportunity rather than a priority, sources said, but in light of Carvajal's injury, his characteristics and international experience mean he's viewed as one of their best options.

It's not yet clear if Alexander-Arnold has decided to leave Liverpool, however, and Madrid are aware that negotiating any kind of deal to allow the player to leave the Premier League leaders mid-season would be complicated.

Madrid are looking for alternatives, with their first-team squad already under-stocked in defence after they missed out on centre-back Leny Yoro last summer, following the departure of Nacho.

At left-back, Madrid were keen to sign Alphonso Davies last summer, and the Canada international remains a priority for the summer of 2025 on a free transfer.

However, bringing forward his arrival to January would mean agreeing a deal with Bayern, which Madrid would not expect to be simple given the German team's ambitions.

Coach Carlo Ancelotti is keen for the club to move and strengthen his defensive options, sources told ESPN.

After being beaten to Yoro's signing by Manchester United, Madrid have Éder Militão and Antonio Rüdiger as their first-choice central defensive pairing.

While David Alaba continues his recovery from a long-term injury, Ancelotti's only alternatives in the position are midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni, or Jesús Vallejo.

Carvajal's injury has increased the scrutiny on the defence. Vázquez is a reliable, experienced deputy, but sources said there are doubts at the club about his ability to deliver at right-back as the regular starter.

On the left, Ferland Mendy is first choice, supported by Fran García. The coaching staff do not view García's level as sufficiently high to play from the outset on a regular basis.

Madrid are keen to move early, and will also look at younger, longer-term prospects in the market, sources told ESPN, but if they aren't convinced, they'll stick with their squad as they did in the summer after failing to land Yoro.
