Arteta urges Lacazette to stay focused amid talk of Arsenal exit
Mikel Arteta has urged Alexandre Lacazette to keep his focus on Arsenal's bid for a top-four finish after the French striker revealed he is in talks about a move away from the Emirates Stadium. Lacazette's current contract expires at the end of this season and he told Canal Plus this week that his agents have held discussions with "lots of clubs" about a potential free transfer. The 30-year-old said he was "missing" playing in the Champions League and that he had "never cut contact" with Lyon, whom he left to join Arsenal five years ago.
