Arsenal are not interested in offering a new contract to forward Alexandre Lacazette.

The Frenchman is at the end of his deal in the summer, and is likely to move on from the Premier League.

According to Goal.com, Arsenal will not renew Lacazette, who is wanted by Lyon in France.

Their president Jean-Michel Aulas admitted as much in a press conference.

Aulas told reporters at the unveiling of Tanguy Ndombele, following his return to Lyon on loan from Tottenham: "It's Lacazette, he interests us because he marked this club.

"It's a profile that interests us and we have always been in contact with him.

"This is part of the guiding ideas brought by (new sporting director) Bruno Cheyrou. In our context, yes it (Lacazette) is more accessible than Benzema.

"We have to try to see if we can do it as a free player but we will not be alone."
