Arsenal have been granted a golden opportunity to replace an outgoing striker with an Italy international after a concrete update on the player’s future.
The future of Alexandre Lacazette is increasingly looking like it will lay away from the Emirates. The Frenchman, 30, has been in fine form of late, though time on his Arsenal career is fast ticking away.
Lacazette is in the final year of his contract and thus far, neither party has showed much willingness to negotiate fresh terms.
As such, the suitors have begun to form a queue, with West Ham and most recently Newcastle lining up. Eddie Nketiah is also expected to depart as a free agent, leaving Mikel Arteta light up top.
