Just five players had (statistically) a bigger impact in the Premier League last year. In total, Trossard was good for ten goals and six assists in 2025, and in the current season he even has five goals and four assists in the British league.
These are figures that make it clear that the importance of our compatriot in Arteta’s team cannot be underestimated. Due to the arrival of Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze, among others, this summer, his future at the club seemed to be hanging by a thread, but nothing could be further from it, as it turns out.

At the end of the transfer period, despite rumors of a departure, he signed an improved contract The Gunners. And above all: when fit, he is almost invariably given preference over the above names and over the Brazilian Gabriel Martinelli.

Manager Mikel Arteta is a fan of the Red Devil’s sense of purpose and has seen him go from strength to strength since arriving in North London in the winter of 2023. “He plays at a higher level season after season. He is such an intelligent player,” the Spaniard said in his press talk before the match against Bournemouth.
“He is a player who really wants it, I think he has found his role. Moreover, his self-confidence has increased and he has also become more mature. He is a player who can create magical moments and is very important for us,” said the tactician.

Last summer he signed an improved contract, but surprisingly enough, his contract was not extended. Will that happen in the coming months? “We are very happy with him and I think he is very happy here,” Arteta concluded without elaborating.
