Gunners fans here in the Football Transfer Tavern have been slightly distraced by the club’s desperate scrap for a centre-half ahead of the new season, however they do have other targets, and they have been set a price.
According to reports from The Telegraph, the Gunners have been set a price by Ligue 1 side Lyon, for their sought after striker, Alexandre Lacazette.
The French outfit have reportedly valued their man at €70m (£59.9m) in a last attempt to deter any further interest from North London.
Arsenal manager, Arsene Wegner’s need for another top striker this summer is well documented, as is their chase for the Frenchman.

Gunners fans, we want to hear from you! Do you think Wenger will meet the asking price? Will we be seeing Lacazette in an Arsenal shirt any time soon? Let us know below…
