Alexandre Lacazzate

After being dropped from the French side in the just-concluded World Cup in Russia, Alexandre Lacazzate will be hoping to produce his best and will be raring to showcase his class.

Lacazzate played as a winger for Lyon before playing as a striker. The Frenchman could turn out to be a key figure for Arsenal, as the 27-year-old can be a reliable option in the forward line with his electric pace and quality dribbles.

The striker has the ability to win the ball back from the opposition with his muscular tackles and can outclass the rivals with his quick counter attacks. Lacazzate can be a threat inside the box because of his precise finishes and clever moves.

His partnership with Aubameyang can cause a few problems for the opposition’s defense. He has scored 100 goals for Lyon FC in 203 games. Lacazzate scored 14 goals in 32 games for Arsenal in the last season and will be looking to continue with the impressive performance this season too.
