Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette has reportedly made a final decision on his future amid speculation over a likely departure in 2022.
The France forward’s contract expires next summer and so far there has been no clear indication that a renewal of his deal will be agreed. Indeed, the longer the silence continues the more likely that the former Lyon man will leave for nothing.
The striker joined Arsenal in a £47million in the summer of 2017. However, after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was signed the following January, Lacazette was often played out of position or left on the bench.
Lacazette has endured a couple of frustrating seasons in north London. He scored 13 Premier League goals last term and has managed just one since the start of the current campaign.
However, that solitary strike was a dramatic late equaliser against Crystal Palace, which then earned the 30-year-old a start in last Friday’s win over Aston Villa. But the frontman has started only 23 times in the league since the start of last season.
