Bayern Ready To “Offer More” For Arsenal’s Top Scorer

Bayern Munich are focusing on securing a deal for Liverpool winger Luis Diaz, but they are keeping all options open.

The German champions have been reportedly linked with a move for Arsenal winger Leandro Trossard this summer, and he could be a good option for the club if they fail to sign Diaz.

The Belgium international joined the Gunners in the January window of 2023 from Brighton & Hove Albion and has established himself as a regular first-team player under Mikel Arteta.

Bayern have been linked with a move for Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli as well, but Trossard has emerged as a “new idea” for them.

Arsenal want Trossard to sign a new contract extension at the Emirates, but Bayern can offer him a better deal.

The former Genk winger is currently managed by German agent Dirk Hebel, who is also the agent of Marco Reus.

Christian Falk has told CFBayern that Trossard is “definitely” on Bayern’s list. The Bavarian club have made contact with the player’s camp, and they can “offer more”.

The Bild journalist said: “Leandro Trossard is a new idea. Gabriel Martinelli has been on the list for longer.

“Bayern had contact with the Arsenal winger’s management, but in the meantime, the club also got in touch with Trossard’s management. This is because he has had a new agent from Germany since July.

“His name is Dirk Hebel – he’s the agent of Marco Reus. Reus, at the time, played for Gladbach when Max Eberl was the sporting director, and was sold to Dortmund. It was a big transfer for Gladbach, with BVB activating a €17.5m [£15.1m] release clause.

“I heard there was also contact with the management again because of this player. So he is definitely on the list, like Martinelli, and I know that Arsenal want to give him a new contract. But I think Bayern Munich can offer more.”

Trossard could be a smart signing for Bayern Munich
Bayern badly need to bolster their wide areas this summer following the departures of Leroy Sane, Thomas Muller and Mathys Tel.

The Bundesliga champions have been further rocked by the horrific injury to Jamal Musiala, who is set to miss upto four months at least.

Trossard, who scored 28 goals in 124 games in all competitions for Arsenal, can play in multiple positions and would come at a relatively cheaper price.

Bayern are also interested in Xavi Simons, but Trossard could be a handy signing for them if they fail to land Diaz.
