Darren Bent says Arsenal should’ve sold ‘underrated’ star in the summer
Darren Bent thinks that Arsenal should have sold a key member of the Mikel Arteta team during the summer.
Gunners have the priority of players acquired in the transfer window, while Endrea Berta spent more than 250 million pounds Sterling for eight new signatures.
Viktor Gyokerres arrived for 63 million Sterling pounds by Sporting CP, while Noni Madueke, Ebelechi Eze and MartÃn Zubimendi also joined the North Londoners for significant costs.
Meanwhile, Berta left the sanction departures on the deadline, and Arteta was then left with a deep team, but undoubtedly swollen.
Darren Bent says that Arsenal should have been selling Leandro Trossard during the summer
Arsenal offered Leandro Trossard a salary increase shortly before the end of the transfer window.
The Belgian accepted, although he now finds himself further in the hierarchical order he wishes, after the arrivals of Eze and Madueke.
That said, “ undersea ” Trossard scored the bench for Arsenal against Athletic Club in the Champions League on Tuesday evening, reminding Arteta that he is still a precious player to have in the team.
This impact on Bilbao did not convince Darren ran that the Gunners made the right decision concerning the future of the winger.
Speaking on Talksport on Wednesday on Wednesday, Bent said that Arsenal should have sold Trossard, instead of offering him fresh and more lucrative terms.
“Trossard, I think Arsenal should have been selling it,” he said.
“They gave him the new contract. Fair Play. They did not think they were going to get Eze at the time. They needed coverage in this position. He obtained the contract, then Eze came.”
The arrival of Ebelechi Eze was separate from Leandro Trossard’s contract
While the Bent’s hypothesis that Trossard was offered a new agreement before Eze’s signature became possible would have a logical meaning, it does not seem to be that the events of N5 took place.
The Belgian international would have promised a better affair months ago, and the Gunners were simply ready to stick to their word on this front, whatever their transfer activity.
The news according to which Trossard had agreed that a new contract occurred only a few days before Eze’s move to the Emirates emerged in the public sphere.
There is little or no luck that Berta and Arteta will not complly already to sign Eze at that time, and therefore, it would seem that the two transactions did not excuse each other.
It is clear that Arteta was simply determined to have a team as deep as possible.
