Arsenal are interested in signing Celtic's Odsonne Edouard as a possible replacement for Alexandre Lacazette, according to a report.

Arsenal are reportedly "very keen" on signing Celtic forward Odsonne Edouard during this summer's transfer window, with Alexandre Lacazette potentially leaving the club.

Lacazette has scored three times in his last four Premier League appearances for the Gunners, but there remains speculation surrounding the Frenchman, with Juventus thought to be in talks over a deal.

According to Bleacher Report, Arsenal are already preparing for the striker's potential exit and have identified Edouard as a possible replacement ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

The 22-year-old enjoyed an impressive 2019-20 season for Celtic, scoring 27 times and registering 19 assists in 45 appearances in all competitions.

Edouard's contract with the Hoops will expire in June 2022, meanwhile, putting the Scottish giants in a difficult position if they cannot agree an extension.

Manchester United have also previously been credited with an interest in the Frenchman.
