Mikel Arteta Reveal No Contract Talks With Lacazette Until The End Of The Season

Lacazette's current deal is set to expire in the summer and he would be free to negotiate with clubs outside of England from January.

He was heavily linked with a move away from the club in the last transfer window but no concrete interest ever materialised, largely due to his hefty wages. Since then he has featured fairly regularly for Mikel Arteta's side, making nine appearances in all competitions this season.

Despite this, contract talks are yet to progress and prior to his side's Premier League clash against Liverpool on Saturday, Arteta confirmed that the club would not be addressing the situation until the summer.

"I don’t know there is so much stuff. What I can say is I'm really happy with what Laca is doing. We’re not going to be talking about any of that until the end of the season," he said.
