Leandro Trossard handed apology by Brighton boss after completing Arsenal transfer

Roberto De Zerbi has apologised to departing star Leandro Trossard after the Belgian was unveiled by new club Arsenal.

Trossard, who had been with the Seagulls since 2019, moved to the Emirates Stadium in a move worth up to £27m. De Zerbi had earlier admitted regret over how the situation developed, having banished the forward from the squad for the recent Premier League victory over Liverpool.

Brighton now have the funds to dip into the market for a replacement, while Arsenal could hand Trossard his first minutes against Manchester United on Sunday with manager Mikel Arteta believing the club completed the relevant paperwork in time.
