Speak to the Arsenal fans or the football pundits and you may unanimously hear that the Gunners need to sign a center back and a striker to become a serious title challengers. However the lack of quality signing at Emirates starkly visible by everyone.

Arsenal have been, for some time now, linked with a move for Alexandre Lacazette from Lyon. After Arsenal succumbing to a 3-4 defeat to Liverpool at home and Lacazette scoring a hat-trick the same weekend, the striker has revealed that he is ready to listen to offers and will accept an offer which he “cannot refuse”.

The 25-year-old has scored 20+ goals for the last few seasons and is one of the highest rated strikers in Europe. Arsenal are believed to have made a bid of £29 million but it was rejected. Now while the Gunners have received a boost in their chase as it is clear that Lacazette is open to a move, it remains to be seen if the club will approach him again.
