Thu Oct 10 20:23:25 UTC 2024: ## Arsenal Star Trossard Ready to Return to Belgium After “Recharge”
**TUBEKE, BELGIUM** – Arsenal winger Leandro Trossard has confirmed his commitment to the Belgian national team, despite being left out of the last international window. Speaking to the press, Trossard clarified that he never intended to distance himself from the Red Devils.
“I never said I didn’t want to be selected anymore,” Trossard stated. The 29-year-old has been in impressive form for Arsenal this season, scoring two goals and providing an assist in nine appearances. He’s determined to carry that momentum into his international duties.
Trossard, who took a short vacation after being omitted from Belgium’s recent matches against Israel and France, explained that he understood coach Domenico Tedesco’s decision to give new players a chance.
“He explained to me that he wanted to test new guys,” Trossard said, adding that he followed the matches and could “agree with that explanation.”
With key players like Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku unavailable, Trossard is seen as a potential leader for the Red Devils. However, he remains focused on contributing in his own way, emphasizing that he won’t be trying to replace anyone.
“It’s not up to me to take over someone else’s role,” Trossard stated. “I just behave the way I did before.” He also expressed his support for Youri Tielemans as the natural choice for captaincy.
As Belgium looks to rebuild following a disappointing European Championship, Trossard’s experience and quality will be essential in guiding younger players like Lamine Yamal.
Despite the challenges of integrating new players and the shift in Belgium’s approach, Trossard remains focused on performing at his best and enjoying the game.
“I am personally happy to be here, because I want to continue the good line at Arsenal with the Red Devils,” Trossard concluded.
