Author of the winning goal for Olympique Lyonnais in the derby against AS Saint-Etienne, Alexandre Lacazette made a big announcement after the final whistle.
Even though he had been struggling in Ligue 1 since the start of the season, Alexandre Lacazette was once again the Lyon hero against the Greens. It was thanks to the only goal from its captain that OL came out on top against ASSE (1-0) and inevitably the General Lacazette did not hide his happiness after winning yet another derby by scoring the 186th goal of his career in the Lyon jersey, the first against AS Saint-Etienne at Groupama Stadium…and probably the last. At 33, and in the last year of his contract, the Olympic vice-champion implicitly admitted that he was going to leave at the end of the season.
At the microphone of DAZN, where Bafé Gomis questioned him, Alexandre Lacazette was very clear. “ It's my first goal against them at Groupama, but it's probably the last too. I soaked up all the energy of my family, the supporters, the stadium », Confided the French striker from Olympique Lyonnais, whose departure for Saudi Arabia was mentioned during the last summer transfer window.
