Alexandre Lacazette's situation at Olympique Lyonnais is tense. At the end of his contract at the end of the season, the French striker could well leave his training club this winter.
After shining with 22 goals and 5 assists last season, Lacazette is marking time a little more this year with only 5 goals in 14 games. A departure is more and more likely, and several clubs, including those in the Gulf, would still be interested in his services. However, a European giant seems to want to offer him a whole new opportunity: Real Madrid.
Lacazette at Real Madrid: a short-term bet?
At 33, Lacazette has never played for one of the biggest European clubs, despite remarkable spells in Ligue 1 and the Premier League. But according to Transfersthe Merengues would have checked his name to strengthen their attack this winter. Real Madrid, although they have several world-class attackers, are looking for a true number 9, a role that Lacazette could fill perfectly. Like former loanee Joselu, Lacazette could be the ideal option to fill the lack of a professional center forward.
The French striker, free at the end of the season, could well seize this chance to join one of the most prestigious clubs in the world. To be continued.
