Arsenal striker Lacazette admits Barcelona interest ‘flattering’

Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette admits he welcomes interest from Barcelona.

Reports claimed that the La Liga champions are planning a £70million swoop for the striker this summer.

It has been suggested that the Catalan side could offer Arsenal both Andre Gomes and Samuel Umtiti to tempt Unai Emery into accepting.

Speaking to Telefoot, Lacazette simply said: “It is flattering.”

It is claimed that Lacazette is very close to the Spanish side’s technical secretary Eric Abidal.

Formal talks between the two clubs are yet to take place, but Arsenal want to tie him and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang down at the Emirates.
