Lyon warn Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain: '£35m for Alexandre Lacazette'

Man City and PSG must think twice before hoping to land Lyon hitman Alexandre Lacazette for less than £35m, says club president Jean-Michel Aulas.

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has warned that Alexandre Lacazette's suitors need to cough up a minimum £35m in order to sign the striker this summer.

The 23-year-old has emerged as one of Europe's hottest hitmen after netting 27 times in 33 Ligue 1 outings this season, resulting in speculation linking him to Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain.

"We will do everything within our powers to hold on to Alexandre," he told Canal+. "You never have any certainties in football, but we are determined to keep him here.

"A transfer fee of €50m [£35m] would not be enough for an attacker like him. He is priceless.

"PSG? I have never spoken with Nasser Al Khelaifi about Alexandre. And I never get the impression PSG want him whenever I speak with Laurent Blanc."

The France international has another three years to run on his contract at Stade de Gerland.
