Arsenal expressed interest in Leandro Trossard through Belgium coach Roberto Martinez, it has been revealed

Trossard is being celebrated today after his hat-trick in Brighton's 3-3 draw at Liverpool.

AS says three years ago, several LaLiga clubs were interested in the midfielder, along with Arsenal. The interest arrived at Trossard's door through Belgium coach Martinez.

"Atlético or Arsenal, that's too soon for Leandro," his agent at the time responded to Martinez.

There's now claims Trossard could be a World Cup danger for Real Madrid ace Eden Hazard as Martinez considers his squad selection.
