OFFICIAL: Arsenal's Trossard is not fit to join Belgium squad & will be replaced
Official statement of Belgium national team:
'Trossard is not fit to join the squad at the Proximus Basecamp on Monday. He will be replaced by Arthur Vermeeren.'
Leandro Trossard started Arsenal’s game against Manchester City on Sunday, with Gabriel Martinelli only just having returned from injury and not fit to play 90 minutes.
But Trossard picked up an injury of his own in the first half, with Mikel Arteta confirming that the player “felt something in his hamstring”.
Arsenal were in talks with the national team over his involvement after the game.
Trossard has already had some key involvements for Arsenal this season, scoring the winning goal against Everton, scoring the equalizer against Manchester City in the Community Shield, and bagging a goal and an assist in the Champions League against PSV.
