Rio Ferdinand has said that he always thought that Leandro Trossard would be a good signing for Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal.

The former Manchester United defender made the comments about Leandro Trossard after Arsenal’s win against Everton at Goodison Park in the Premier League this past weekend.

Praise for Arsenal winger Leandro Trossard

Trossard came on as a substitute for the Gunners.

The Belgium international winger scored the only goal of the match in the second half.

The 28-year-old joined Arsenal from Brighton and Hove Albion in January 2023.

Ferdinand said about Trossard on his YouTube channel: “I was the one who was saying that this guy is a fantastic signing.”

The pundit added: “Trossard coming in, looks supremely confident.”

Leandro Trossard an important player for Arsenal

In our view, Leandro Trossard is a very important player for Arsenal.

Although the winger is not guaranteed a place in the Arsenal starting lineup, he can and does make an impact off the bench.

Like he did against Everton.

Arsenal will play in the UEFA Champions League this season.

And the Gunners will surely want to go far in the cup competitions.

So, Trossard will get chances to play.

The winger has made 139 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.

Trossard has scored 27 goals and given 23 assists in those games.
