Leandro Trossard only made a cameo appearance in Arsenal’s win over Manchester United, but his debut has been hailed as an important moment in the Gunners’ season.
Trossard came off the substitutes’ bench to play his first minutes for his new team on Sunday evening. He entered the field in the 82nd minute for Gabriel Martinelli and was involved in Eddie Nketiah’s match-winning goal in the final minute.
The Belgium international joined Arsenal in a £27million transfer from Brighton on Friday after falling out with Seagulls boss Roberto De Zerbi. His arrival helped soften the blow for Arsenal after they missed out on top target Mykhaylo Mudryk, who was snapped up by Chelsea for £87m.
