Angry Arteta Puts Alexandre Lacazette On List Of “For Sale” Players

Alexandre Lacazette’s name has appeared on a list of players Arsenal are looking to sell with Mikel Arteta not keen on the forward.

But the 29-year-old has often come under fire for his lack of goals and he fell down the pecking order last season starting just 22 Premier League matches.

Lacazette’s future at the Emirates was questioned last summer with a number of clubs reportedly interested in taking him from the club.

No deal materialised with the Gunners sticking with the Frenchman, but there has been no progress on a new contract with his current deal expiring next year.

Arsenal will not want a similar situation to the one they had with Mesut Ozil and Aaron Ramsey where both players were allowed to leave for free.

Lacazette remains an enticing option for clubs around Europe looking to bolster their attacking options.

And Spanish outlet AS report that Atletico Madrid has a longstanding interest in the striker as a possible replacement for Luis Suarez.
