The first time he left was at his peak, Arsenal made an offer Lyon could not refuse, Olympique accepted a check for 53,000,000 euros. That’s when Alexandre Lacazette realized his sporting dreams, along the way he scored 71 goals in the Gunners jersey and earned so much that even his grandchildren won’t have to worry about their future.But, regardless of everything, something like this is not often seen. Namely, Lacazette refused to leave his native Lyon for the second time and move to Saudi Arabia, even though the owners of Al Qadsiah offered him a salary of as much as 30,000,000 euros for a two-season contract.##NAJAVA_MECA_8168041##Olympique were up for the deal, they would have earned 10,000,000 euros in compensation, which is not an insignificant sum when we are talking about a 33-year-old. Admittedly, to a rather lively 33-year-old. With the captain’s armband around his biceps, Lacazette scored 22 goals for the Lyon club last season.He stayed there even when it was bad and when it seemed that Olympique would fight for survival. And when he eventually pushed the team to the Europa League, he couldn’t resist going out on the international stage once again in the shirt of his beloved club.Before that, he will represent France at the Olympics. Some things money can’t buy.🚨🚨 Alexandre Lacazette a REFUSÉ une offre saoudienne de 15 M€/an pour rester à l’OL ! ❤️💙Il aime Lyon. 🫶(@lequipe) pic.twitter.com/UdVXtJrpJi— Actu Ligue 1 (@ActuL1_) June 19, 2024
