French club are in talks with Alexandre Lacazette

Alexandre Lacazette was on the bench and watched as Eddie Nketiah put Chelsea to the sword in Arsenal’s 4-2 win at Stamford Bridge last night

Mikel Arteta benched the Frenchman just days after he spoke about his future and stated that he was in talks with potential teams.

Nketiah’s performance may mean that the former Lyon man will not start another game for Arsenal, and this may be his final season with the club.

According to reports, one of his pursuers is growing serious about signing him when the transfer season reopens.

According to the report, Lyon has approached the striker about returning to the club as a free agent after his contract with Arsenal expires.

He began his career with the Ligue 1 club before moving to Arsenal in 2017. Returning there will allow him re-establish himself as a significant figure at a European club, and the Gunners will wish him the best of luck.

Lacazette has never been a prolific goal scorer at the Emirates, and there is little need to keep him.

He is excellent at keeping the ball and allowing other players to enter, but attackers are paid to score goals, and he will never score enough to help Arsenal reach their goals.
