Arsenal recruited Trossard from Brighton for 20 million euros and now they have an offer from Al Ittihad for 35 million euros and automatically if they accept the offer then Arsenal will make a big profit at the moment, but Arsenal today is not the Arsenal of the past who often sell their star players when it comes to offers from other clubs, Trossard indeed continues to be a supersub at Arsenal last season but after his performance against Aston Villa in the second week this season it looks like Trossard will Getting a place in the starting line-up Arsenal, especially now  Martinelli who is also experiencing a decline in performance, so I think Arsenal is not selling Trossard in the near future because anyway to compete in the Champions League and the Premier League of course Arteta needs a qualified squad, besides that reportedly Arsenal and Arteta have ambitions to break the negative trend for the last 22 years are now starting to build a squad with long-term projects and  Selling Trossard will only make their squad weak and unbalanced later.

Letting Trossard move to Saudi Arabia will be a good business for Arsenal. The Belgian international is twenty-nine years old and his performance might decline in a few years. Accepting the €35m offer from Al-Ittihad will be highly profitable.  But Arsenal has declined to let him go even with the presence of good players such as Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Martinelli who can play his position.

Playing in the English Premier League is too hectic because there are many competitions to play. Arsenal is also playing in the UCL, making their schedule tight. This is why most top coaches will always want to have enough reserve players in case of injuries, suspensions or fatigue. It is not just about making a profit but sustaining the quality of the team.
