Used to offering golden contracts to recruit its transfer window prospects, PSG had tried it with Alexandre Lacazette during the Laurent Blanc era. The scorer and captain of OL spoke about this subject, and said he thought about it for a long time given the salary that PSG was offering them at that time.
At the age of 33, Alexandre Lacazette is necessarily closer to the end of his career than the beginning. The scorer of theOL however, he only knew two clubs, he who had passed through Arsenal between 2017 and 2022 before returning to the Gone. Yet, Lacazette has not lacked prestigious offers during his career, having notably received a very good offer from PSG with a big contract at stake, when Laurent Blanc coached the capital club.
Lacazette unveils its XXL slopes
In an interview given to Media Square, Alexandre Lacazette evokes the prestigious clubs in which he could have signed: “ Barcelona? Yes, there were discussions. After discussions, that doesn't necessarily mean that I could have gone there. Otherwise, I would say Atlético, Juve. Did I say no to PSG? Yes it's true. There was Marseille too. Paris was under the Laurent Blanc era. Marseille was after Arsenal », indicates the scorer of theOL.
“PSG? When you see the numbers…”
« When the leaders of Paris come, it's true that you see the figures, it inevitably makes you want to. But for me, I already didn't really want to go to another French club and I wanted to taste another championship. Afterwards, when you really think about it and it's natural, you tell yourself that there's no point in going to Paris », continues Lacazette about his contacts with PSG, who obviously offered him a substantial salary to sign. But the player decided otherwise.
