The 28-year-old will wear the number 19 Jersey at the Emirates and is available for selection for their top of the table clash against Manchester United on Sunday.

The Italian boss dropped the midfielder from their starting lineup in the FA Cup just after the World Cup break and it was reported that Trossard was unhappy with the decision and responded badly to the manager. His agent further claimed that De Zerbi “disrespected” the midfielder and that his client wanted a move away from the Amex.
