Alexandre Lacazette eager to take France chance

Alexandre Lacazette reveals that he is eager to impress France coach Didier Deschamps while on international duty this week.

Lyon forward Alexandre Lacazette has admitted that he is keen to take his chance while on international duty with France this week.

The 23-year-old has been in impressive form for his club this season, scoring 11 goals in 13 Ligue 1 matches.

However, with just three previous international caps to his name, Lacazette now wants to impress Les Bleus coach Didier Deschamps and earn himself a place in the squad for Euro 2016.

"I want to have a good week, get some game time, and why not score a goal," he told reporters. "Every time you wear the shirt it is with joy, and it is an honour. I think of all those who made me fall in love with football - the World Cup winners of 1998.

"I'm also thinking of Euro 2016, which is my objective in the medium to long term. I would really like to be there."

France entertain Albania in a friendly on Friday before hosting Sweden next Tuesday.
