Alexandre Lacazette joins former club Lyon from Arsenal on free transfer
The HinduFrance striker Alexandre Lacazette is going back to Lyon. READ | Lyon, which struggled to an eighth-placed finish this season and won its last French league title in 2008, said Lacazette's return had been a priority over the last few months. “This second signing of the off-season, which follows Remy Riou's return to the club and the prolongation of Maxence Caqueret and Anthony Lopes, is proof that the club has great ambitions to instill a new dynamic around its men’s professional squad," Lyon said in a statement Thursday. Lacazette's comeback was announced amid media reports that Foster Gillett, the son of former Liverpool owner George Gillett, has reached an agreement to become Lyon’s majority shareholder. According to L'Equipe newspaper, he has reached an agreement worth 600 million euros with Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas, who has been running the club since 1987.
