​Romano: Arsenal Will Sign a Top Left-Winger After Trossard Leaves; Rogers Price Tag €130m

July 14 – Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano has provided transfer updates on several clubs and players in his latest video podcast.

On Trossard and Arsenal

First, the latest news I've just received: Leandro Trossard is leaving Arsenal. This is big news because Trossard has been a fantastic player for the Gunners. Always available, never suffered a major injury. Always professional, never caused problems. Super reliable – scores goals, provides assists. We can only say positive things about him.

Now, his time at Arsenal is over as he's set to join Beşiktaş on a lucrative deal until June 2030. The move has been approved by the player; Arsenal also gave the green light a few days ago. The fee is €18 million plus €2 million in add-ons. Beşiktaş have finalised the contract with the player and his agent. He will fly to Istanbul tomorrow for his medical and signing. Trossard is a new Beşiktaş winger.

This also marks the beginning of Arsenal's summer business. They'll look for a replacement winger. Club Brugge's Christos Tzolis is certainly on the list. The player is waiting for Arsenal. Contact was made in June, and now Tzolis is waiting to see if Arsenal act. Beyond that, Arsenal will sign a top-level winger. Morgan Rogers remains their top target. They are waiting to see what happens at Aston Villa – the asking price starts at £130 million. So there will be plenty to talk about regarding Arsenal.

I mentioned Aston Villa, and for them, this could be one of the busiest days in recent years, as the news this morning was that Youri Tielemans is moving from Villa to Manchester United. I can add a few details for those interested. Tielemans will sign a five-year contract with Manchester United.

Equally important: Tielemans has arrived in Manchester – he was already on his way earlier today and is now in Manchester. All formalities will be completed in the next 24 hours. So Tielemans is set to become a Manchester United player. The £35 million release clause has been triggered. This is an excellent signing for United. And let's not forget Andrey Santos has also been announced, and also remember Ederson – as I told you before, talks with Atalanta have been terminated. So Ederson to United will not happen.
