Coveted by Saudi Arabia who offered him a good salary, Alexandre Lacazette finally chose to stay at OL. The Lyon striker favors a European Cup adventure with his training club rather than the big Saudi check.
While Rayan Cherki was announced at PSG, Lyon supporters feared losing Alexandre Lacazette in the process. The serial goalscorer from Lyon is coveted by the Saudi club Al-Qadisiyah, owned by the oil giant Aramco. Lacazette was offered a two-year contract with a net annual salary of 15 million euros. Finally, OL will have the pleasure of counting on Alexandre Lacazette next season according to information from L’Equipe. The 6th place snatched on the last day made the difference. Indeed, Lacazette wants to stay at OL to compete in the European Cup with Les Gones. Even if OL could have recovered 10 million euros from a possible transfer, the Rhone club can be relieved to keep a player who has scored 74 goals in all competitions over the last two years.
