Following Lyon’s 2-1 defeat to PSG in the Coupe de France final, Alexandre Lacazette (32) spoke to the media and his future was the hottest topic.

The future of the Lyon captain is unknown. Lacazette’s contract at the Groupama Stadium is not set to expire until June 2025. However, this has not failed to raise speculation about his long-term future with his boyhood club. The former Arsenal striker is not without suitors either.

Saudi Arabian clubs are showing an interest in the former France international, according to RMC Sport. Due to the cash-flush financial resources of clubs in the Saudi Pro League, Lacazette has been made an ‘unrefusable’ offer which he is likely to struggle to turn down due to the financial terms.

Commenting on his future at Lyon, Lacazette said, “The possibility of departure? That’s not the point here. We’ll wait a few days, concentrate. There is no: ”I’m leaving or I’m going to stay”.  I’m thinking about the final. Afterwards, I’ll take a few days to think about all that.”
