Jean-Michel Aulas invites PSG to bid for Lacazette

While speaking to France Football, Lyon President Jean-Michel Aulas stated that he would prefer it if a French club bid for Alexandre Lacazette. In his interview, he said, "I want him [PSG’s President] to know that if he makes an offer for Alexandre at least equal to that of the other clubs bidding for him, then Alex can go to Paris without a problem.”

"I am a businessman and a modern club president. Transfer money must be reinvested into French football, as I always did when we were at the peak of our powers. When transfer money is shared abroad, it strengthens our competitors instead," he concluded.
