Reports say Arsenal is ready to sell Leandro Torosad to Borussia Dortmund this summer, this summer.
Gunner has already joined six players this summer alongside Kepa Alizabaraga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgado, Noni Madueke, Christian Mosquera and Victor Guiyoker.
And they’re now focusing on dropouts as Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is about to trim a bloated team before returning to the transfer market.
Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg revealed on Tuesday that Dortmund is interested in signing Torosad, who has two offers at the table at Arsenal’s Premier League club.
Plettenberg wrote in X: The 30-year winger also has two specific offers from Premier League clubs. This window can be moved. #BVB He is on a contract with Arsenal until 2027.

Dortmund has a clear name, “the gunners on selling the Gunners” and “hoping to capitalize on the reasons behind this stance in London.”
Arsenal believes that at a price considered reasonable by the German club director, they are “trying to make a room for the team and secure cash” in pursuit of the Brazilian signature.
The report adds, “Trossard’s departure will not only help us achieve its financial goals, but will also allow for the restructuring of the Arteta attack.”
Longtime Arsenal cover journalist Charles Watts argues that losing Torosad is a “acceptable sacrifice” to bring about the gunners’ frequent ties.

Watts told Sportsmore:
“We’re looking at the eight positions on the left in particular. It’s not creative and not an option they have there. Declan Rice, an excellent player. Not the most creative player, but more and more goals and more goals.
“So they can’t really change the game and there’s really no unpredictability there. It might need to be sold. It might have to go to do it for it to happen.
Watts added: “I won’t let him go unless we’re absolutely guaranteed that someone else will come in. He was a great signature.
“I don’t want him to go out the door at all. I think he still has the load to offer. He’s versatile, he scores goals, he scores goals.
“Then if he comes in, you’re Eze, Martinelli, Madueke. Even if Torosad goes, there’s the option on the left. I think Arsenal will lose a very good player.
