It’s always nice if you don’t cut off ties with your former club, because at the end of the day, there’s always a place where you can come back, unless off course, you are Lionel Messi. The Argentinian was maybe thinking of coming back to Barcelona after not a great season with PSG, but president Joan Laporta quickly dismissed those rumors, unlike his colleague from Lyon Jean-Michel Aulas. The French businessman wouldn’t mind striking a deal with soon to be free agent Alexandre Lacazette, but the other party has some conditions which Aulas will have problems fulfilling. Footballer who hasn’t been offered a new deal from his current employers gives an interview about his future & talks about his next ambitions:Level headed, rational people – 🤷🏻♂️Arsenal ‘Fans’ – 😡🔫🔥💣💥Imagine my shock… #Lacazette #AFC pic.twitter.com/j7RY67Rw4Q— Kris 🔴⚪ 🇨🇵 ⭐⭐ (@KC_Runz) April 18, 2022 Arsenal’s number 9 is not having a good season, for whatever reason, as Lyon born striker has scored only 4 goals in 25 appearances in the Premier League, and 2 more in EFL Cup. He is on course for his worst season in the red and white shirt, with 2019/20 being the worst so far (10 goals in 30 games). And since his contract runs out in July, there is no reason to think that Lacazette will stay at the Emirates beyond this season. North Londoners’ horror trip to the south coast – Arsenal lose to Saints awayThe player himself admitted to have discussed his future with various clubs, but also confessed that his comeback to Lyon would be ‘complicated’, referring mostly to his desire to play European football again. “I am in discussions with a lot of clubs. I am open. I have never cut contact with Lyon since I left. I try to return to the club once or twice a year to see the medical staff because we are really close. Lyon knows that I am free, they have come to the information. It’s a bit more complicated. I want to play in Europe, it’s been a long time since I played in the Champions League, I’m missing it. It’s a little more complicated, nothing is impossible in life, but it’s a little more complicated” said Lacca to Canal Plus. (2.45) QPR (3.10) DERBY (3.20)And it’s simple as that – the Frenchman wants to play in the Champions League and he could simply choose the club who can afford him that, with a wage cut, off course, or he could yet decide to go back to his boyhood club, for which he played in 275 games and scored 129 goals. But, Peter Bosz and his men have their part to deliver first, and it’s gonna be tough. Lyon are almost out of contention for the Champions League spot and even Europa League is almost out of reach. Former 7 time consecutive French champion is currently in 8th place, 7 points off Champions League qualifications, 5 points off Europa League and 4 off Conference League, UEFA’s third tier competition with 6 games to go.
