Lyon preparing to unveil Alexandre Lacazette as new signing

Lacazette has been training with Lyon for several weeks

Lyon is planning to schedule a media conference as they are preparing to unveil Alexandre Lacazette as new signing on Thursday.

The departing Arsenal striker passed a medical with Olympique Lyon on Wednesday. He is due to return to his former club as he comes off contract this month.

According to RMC, Lyon have scheduled a press conference tomorrow morning at 9 AM where it is thought the signing will be made official to the media.

Lacazette left France and OL for Arsenal five years ago in a £47.7million deal.

The striker has been training with Lyon for several weeks after deciding not to renew his contract with the Gunners.
