Arsenal considers transfer of 31-year-old midfielder to Turkish club amid surprise form.

Arsenal considers transfer of 31-year-old midfielder to Turkish club amid surprise form.

Arsenal's successful season, culminating in the Premier League title, has not led to complacency. The club aims to strengthen its squad further this summer, which may involve letting some players go and bringing in new talent.

One player who could be on his way out is Leandro Trossard. Despite his significant contributions to the team, both as a substitute and starter, there have been indications that Arsenal is looking to upgrade on him. With Trossard's contract entering its final 12 months, the club may be inclined to sell him rather than risk losing him for free in the future.

Trossard's potential departure could lead to him joining Turkish side Besiktas. The club is reportedly interested in signing him, and a deal may be in the works. Given Trossard's age, approaching 32, and his contract situation, Arsenal may not demand a high transfer fee.

If Trossard leaves, Arsenal may look to sign a replacement. One potential target is Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers, while another dream target for the team is Bradley Barcola. The club's manager, Mikel Arteta, may have other plans to strengthen his squad.

In other transfer news, Charlie Cresswell is set to join Rennes after two strong seasons with Toulouse. His progress will be watched closely by Premier League clubs. Meanwhile, Liverpool's interest in Michael Kayode appears to have been extinguished after the player signed a new deal with Brentford.
