Ben Foster criticizes Arsenal for selling Leandro Trossard to Besiktas

Ben Foster expressed shock over Arsenal's decision to sell Leandro Trossard to Besiktas after the Belgian's crucial role in recent seasons. Trossard finalized his transfer shortly after Belgium's World Cup exit. Foster, while acknowledging Arsenal's signing of Christos Tzolis as a replacement, believes Trossard's influence warranted a reconsideration of the sale. The move comes as Arsenal aims to build a competitive squad despite Trossard's contract situation, which only had one year remaining. Foster's comments highlight a disconnect between Arsenal's ambitions and the loss of an impactful player.
