Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta denies he wants to push out Alexandre Lacazette.

It's been suggested Arsenal will seek to sell the striker with less than 18 months to run on his current deal.

But Arteta insists: "He has a contract with us.

"He did really well the other week. Exactly what we demand him to do and the discussions about his contract will happen soon and we will see what happens.

"I am hoping the players I have with contracts are going to continue with us. Every case is different."
