Former Arsenal star Ian Wright has shed light on the mounting impatience of Leandro Trossard as he finds himself playing second fiddle to Kai Havertz in the Gunners’ pecking order.
Trossard has predominantly been utilized by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta as an impact substitute throughout the season, yet he has consistently delivered when called upon.
The Belgian maestro has kick-started six out of 13 matches across various competitions for Arteta’s squad, leaving an indelible mark with five goals and one assist to his name.
Meanwhile, Havertz has enjoyed a prominent role in the starting lineup, but the German sensation has struggled to make an impact, mustering just one goal and one assist in 18 appearances across competitions.
Speaking through TBRFootball, Wright voiced his sentiments, saying, “At some point, Kai has to reckon with himself and ask, ‘Am I truly keeping that guy out? Does he deserve it?’ Trossard is well within his rights to question, ‘What more do you need from me? When I arrived, it was about contributing assists and goals. I have turned games around.”
“I’ve aided in winning matches, so what level of trust do I need to earn?’”
