Lyon president: 'Arsene Wenger hasn't asked about Alexandre Lacazette'

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas says that Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has not asked about the availability of striker Alexandre Lacazette.

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has suggested that striker Alexandre Lacazette will not leave the club to join Arsenal this summer.

The Gunners - as well as other Premier League sides - have been linked with the French international, but Aulas has said that he does not believe the forward will move to the Emirates Stadium after boss Arsene Wenger declined the chance to ask about his availability.

Aulas told L'Equipe: "I've met Arsene Wenger quite often during France games [at the Euros] but he has not spoken to me about this so I don't think there is something in it and it seems too that Lacazette wants to play with Lyon in the new stadium.

"He wants a Champions League adventure that is far better than the previous one. I think he will stay with us and we are very happy."

Aulas has previously said that Lyon had no intention of selling a striker who has scored 48 goals in Ligue 1 during the past two campaigns.
