Just ask any Arsenal fan out there about Lacazette, and they will tell you how phenomenal the striker is!
Indeed, the forward has been netting decisive goals for Arsenal this season; which has attracted interest from one of Europe’s giants, Barcelona.
In turn, Barcelona has pitched a 70 million pound offer to Arsenal in a bid to buy the player.
In response, Alexandre Lacazette has admitted he is flattered by Barcelona’s interest in him which has left many fans dismayed.
The Gunners are looking to tie the French forward down with a new long-term deal following his sublime spell of form.
But Lacazette has fuelled speculation that he could leave at the end of the season when he discussed his links to Barcelona.
Speaking to Telefoot, the 27-year-old simply said: “It is flattering.”
Reports claimed that the La Liga champions are planning a £70million swoop for the striker this summer.
It has been suggested that the Catalan side could offer Arsenal both Andre Gomes and Samuel Umtiti to tempt Unai Emery into accepting.
But the Gunners will want to keep hold of the France international, who joined them from Lyon for a then-club record fee of £47.
Lacazette picked up the club’s Player of the Year award after scoring 19 goals and making 10 assists in all competitions.
He scored in both legs as Arsenal beat Valencia to book their spot in the final of the Europa League.
