Arsenal told to pay £60m for Alexandre Lacazette

Lyon have told Arsenal that they will need to pay  €55 million (£48.7 m) plus €12m (£10.6m), in add-ons if they want to sign Alexandre Lacazette this summer, according to the Daily Telegraph.  

Arsenal have long been linked with a move for the Lyon striker who’s move to Atletico Madrid fell through following FIFA’s ban being upheld. The Gunners have begun talks with Lyon over a potential move but will face competition from Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund for Lacazette’s signature. 

Lacazette is very much high on Arsenal transfer wishlist although they have not given up hope of signing top target, Kylian Mbappé and are prepared to pay £88.5 million for the youngster.
