Arsenal striker Lacazette remains on Atletico Madrid shopping list

Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette remains high on Atletico Madrid's shopping list.

AS says while both the LaLiga and Premier League are currently suspended due to the coronavirus outbreak, Atletico are actively discussing a move for France international Lacazette.

Atletico believe Arsenal will be prepared to sell should they fail to qualify for the Champions League. With a deal to 2022, it would suit the Gunners to cash in this summer.

Atletico have long admired Lacazette, having struck terms with Lyon for the striker three years ago, only for their transfer ban to thwart their plans and allow Arsenal to step in and take the Frenchman to London.
