Time for Alexis to ditch Arsenal
According to French publication Le Progres, the 26-year-old centre-forward has arrived in England prior to finalising a switch to Emirates Stadium.
Writing on Twitter, the Lyon president described the story as “false” and claimed Arsenal’s initial offer was below the Ligue 1 club’s valuation of their star attacker.
Aulas has previously said the Premier League side must part with €65million to prise Lacazette away from Parc Olympique Lyonnais.
“False information from Le Progres about the eventual transfer of Alex L,” he tweeted.
“He’s not in London. The first offer was €45m!”
