What Leandro Trossard's agent has said about the winger's future amid £22m Arsenal links

The agent of Genk winger of Leandro Trossard has a message for Arsenal and Unai Emery ahead of this summer's transfer window.

Regardless of whether the Gunners seal a top four finish or win the Europa League, the Spaniard is expected to bolster his squad in preparation for the new season with a left-back and a replacement for Aaron Ramsey high on his list.

As is bringing in a wide forward and there have been links to the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Cengiz Under, Cristian Pavon among others, but they could be out of the club's price range if they don't qualify for the Champions League.

Arsenal must change their number one transfer priority to solve Unai Emery's biggest issue

football.london  understands the Gunners first registered an interest in Trossard in November but, with finances tight in north London, there was no realistic prospect of a move in the January transfer window.

Furthermore, Trossard is said to be keen on a move to north London though it is understood there is no agreement between the two clubs over a transfer fee but "£22m could be enough to convince Genk into selling.

And now the Belgian's agent, Josy Comhair, has offered Arsenal some hope that a deal this summer could be done, although he did talk up a switch to the Bundesliga for his client.

"There is no agreement with any club yet," Comhair told Belgian outlet  Het Nieuwsblad . "But I think that Germany is a beautiful country for him.

"You can take it one step higher via Germany. Because with Arsenal you are immediately at the highest level and you can almost only go down.

"But yes, it can also be Arsenal."

Trossard has enjoyed a breakthrough season with Genk this term, scoring 11 goals in 24 league games despite being predominantly deployed as a wide player.

His haul in the Europa League was also impressive, with five goals is any many games during the qualification rounds and then three in six appearances during the group phase.
