Lyon believe they are in the prime position to sign Arsenal striker Alexander Lacazette on a free transfer.
The French striker departed Lyon for Arsenal earlier in his career, making 275 appearances for the club.
Now the 31-year-old is set for a return to his homeland, and Lyon are eager to bring him back.
According to the Daily Mail, he is very unlikely to renew with Arsenal, as manager Mikel Arteta is targeting reinforcements in attacking positions this summer.
Lacazette will want to move to a club where he can be a regular starter.
Arsenal are targeting the likes of Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City this summer.
