The drama goes on. The hunt for the striker is still going on. Olivier Giroud is not a bad scorer, and he finds himself on the scoresheet. But the problem with him is that he is exceptionally slow (refer to France vs Germany, Euro 2016 semifinal) and goes missing on big occasions. Arsenal recently missed out on Jamie Vardy, so Wenger is forged to shift his attention towards other forwards available in the transfer market.
Lacazette is one of those targets and as per Independent, Wenger has been able to hold talks with Olympique Lyonnais, or Lyon about the availability of Lacazette while he has been in France for some television-related commitments. The Daily Mail report that Arsenal have already enquired about Lacazette and Lyon have quoted a price of £42million on the 25 year old. Wenger, known for his penchant for bargains, is unwilling to pay that much money on Lacazette. But he might be forced to reconsider if he fails to replace Giroud.
Lacazette is strong,fast and has an exceptional eye for goal. He was Ligue 1’s top scorer in 2015. And he might be the one to fix Arsenal’s woes upfront.
