49 minutes. It was Alexandre Lacazette’s playing time in the Premier League with Arsenal before his 67th minute entry against Crystal Palace (2-2) on Monday night. In other words, not much. But the 30-year-old forward sent a message to his coach Mikel Arteta against the Eagles, snatching the tie at stoppage.

3 goals in 5 games

Since the start of the season, the Spanish coach has not counted on the French. The former Lyonnais has only five appearances: three league appearances (Manchester City, Brighton, Crystal Palace) and two League Cup matches (West Bromwich Albion, Wimbledon). That’s not much for someone who’s used to playing around 40 games a season since arriving at Emirates Stadium in 2017.

It was my first league goal of the season. I know I have to work hard to get a few minutes and I try to enjoy myself to the fullest when I’m on the field. , entrusted the international tricolor to the Sky Sports microphone after the match. With his third goal in five appearances (1 goal every 62 minutes on average) and an inning that revitalized his team’s game, the ex-Gone took the opportunity to remind himself that he could be more than a substitute.

Lacazette led by her future?

I don’t understand why he doesn’t play more, former England striker Gary Lineker asked on Twitter. There must be a reason, I suppose, but I haven’t seen it. It may not be athletic. In fact, the player’s contractual situation may be a first element of answer to explain his limited playing time this season.

At the end of the contract in June, Lacazette did not receive an extension proposal from his management. His future seems to emerge far from Arsenal. According to the English press, its leaders do not oppose his departure in January to recover some money six months after the end of his lease. To think that your club is trying to convince you to leave this winter, there is only one step that can be taken.
