In Turkey, Pepe undergoes a medical for Trabzonspor

by

Ready to undergo a medical and be announced by Trabzonspor is Nicolas Pepe. Arsenal and Trabzonspor found it in everything and agreed on a permanent move of the footballer until 2024.

The 28-year-old winger is expected to pass the Turkish team’s medical during the day (08/09) and be announced.

Besiktas also showed a similar interest, but could not find an agreement with the English club. Several Saudi Arabian teams also approached him, but he rejected all offers as he only wanted Trabzonspor.

The young Ivorian was acquired by the “gunners” in 2019 for 80 million euros, being the most expensive transfer of the British team. However, he did not live up to the expectations of both Arsenal and the fans after he scored 27 goals and 21 assists in 112 games. Last season he played on loan in Nice where he did not cope there either as in 28 games he scored only eight goals and one assist.
