Alan Smith has said on Sky Sports Premier League (12:40pm, April 18, 2021) that Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette is looking happy now.
The former Arsenal star, who now works as a pundit for Sky Sports, has noted that the striker is finishing his chances well and is looking a lot confident now.
Smith said on Sky Sports Premier League (12:40pm, April 18, 2021): “Lacazette, he is leading from the front, playing with a lot of confidence, smile on his face, finishing his chances really sharply.”
Important player for Arsenal
Lacazette has not always been the first-choice striker at Arsenal due to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s form, but the Frenchman is delivering the goods this season.
With Aubameyang not in the best of form this season, the 29-year-old France international striker has stepped up his game and is banging in the goals for fun.
According to WhoScored, the former Lyon star has scored 13 goals and provided two assists in 21 Premier League starts and has scored three goals in five Europa League starts for the Gunners so far this season.
Interestingly, Lacazette has been linked with a move away from Arsenal, with The Telegraph reporting earlier this week that the Gunners are open to selling the striker and are looking for £15 million to £20 million for him.
Perhaps Arsenal should reconsider their stance and keep the Frenchman beyond the end of the season.
