Chelsea and Tottenham on alert as Leandro Trossard's agent releases Brighton transfer statement

Chelsea and Tottenham have been alerted to Leandro Trossard's availability in the January transfer window following a statement his agent has released. The Brighton star has been a standout performer in the Premier League this season, sparking speculation that he could leave the club.

Trossard has been dropped from the Brighton team to face Liverpool as the forward enters a key stage of his current contract with the Seagulls. The Belgian forward developed into a brilliant player under Graham Potter, but his relationship with new manager Roberto De Zerbi has become fractured in recent weeks.

Trossard has 18 months left on his current deal at the American Express Community Stadium but could leave the club sooner given De Zerbi's decision to exile the 28-year-old from first team training. Arsenal had registered an interest in Trossard but look set to complete a deal for Mykhaylo Mudryk, leaving just Chelsea and Tottenham to fight it out for his signature.
