Still only 25, and at the peak of his game, the Lyon star is known for his acceleration, agility, skill on the ball and calm finishing skills. Arsenal, Real Madrid, PSG and Atletico Madrid were all said to be interested in Lacazette but Lyon president Aulas dug his heels in and did not sell his prized asset.
Lyon are 8th in Ligue 1 this season and are not looking like genuine title contenders and Lacazette needs a change in surroundings if he wants to show his abilities at the biggest stage in Europe.
