Barcelona are in contact with Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette.

Le 10 Sport says Barca have approached the player's management to assure him of their interest.

The LaLiga champs see Lacazette as an alternative to Atletico Madrid attacker Antoine Griezmann.

Should the Frenchman turn Barca down, they will move for Lacazette as an alternative. It's suggested the striker's versatility is attractive to Barca chiefs.

Just this week, Lacazette was asked about the rumours.

Speaking to Telefoot, Lacazette simply replied: "It is flattering."
