“Wednesday we got in touch with Arsenal – 24 hours later they had an agreement.” AFC

Agent reveals why dithering Tottenham failed to sign £27m Arsenal newcomer – ‘I called Edu…’Leandro Trossard’s agent – Josy Comhair – has confirmed that Tottenham Hotspur were in talks to sign the midfielder before he joined rivals Arsenal.The 22-year-old was identified as a priority target this month but Arsenal acted swiftly to sign Trossard as an alternative for a significantly lower transfer fee.

His contract was due to expire in the summer but they had the option to extend his deal until 2024. This enabled them to demand a decent fee and he has been sold to Arsenal for a fee that could rise to £27m with add-ons. “He knows the league, he has enough experience here and I think he can have an immediate impact in the team.

“When you look at his career and what he’s done in the last few years, he’s a player that fits our way of playing.”It was reported that they submitted a cheeky £12m to Brighton.
