Arsenal are considering increasing their offer to Alexandre Lacazette, who is out of contract at the Gunners at the end of the season, according to Jeunes Footeux.
Lacazette, like fellow Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah, is out of contract at Arsenal in the summer of 2022.
Jeunes Footeux have reported that Arsenal offered a new deal to the France international striker back in December 2021.
The report has claimed that the Gunners have now changed their mind and are considering making a better offer and for a longer term stay for Lacazette.
The striker’s form has reportedly convinced Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.
Arsenal in tricky position with Alexandre Lacazette
In our view, Arsenal are in a tricky position with Lacazette and his future.
We have seen in recent weeks just how important that striker is to Arsenal.
Lacazette may not always score as a striker, but he is creating chances and providing assists.
The Arsenal no. 9 has scored three goals and provided seven assists in 15 Premier League starts so far this season.
Now, of course, Lacazette is a senior figure in the Arsenal dressing room, but he is also 30.
Would it be prudent of Arsenal to hand the former Lyon star a new three-year contract?
