Since the arrival of QSI at Paris Saint-Germain in July 2011, the capital club has established itself as one of the references in Europe but as THE reference in Ligue 1.
The Ile-de-France team wins almost all the national trophies and leaves only crumbs to its competitors. Several players from the championship are interested in a transfer to the French capital.
But not all. During an interview with the media Square, Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette revealed that he failed the red and blue leaders during the Laurent Blanc era. “I said no to PSG. When Paris comes, it’s true that you see the figures, it necessarily attracts you, but I already didn’t want to go to another French club than Lyon and I wanted to taste another championship, “ he admitted.
Eventually, the General had opted for Arsenal in the summer of 2017 where he remained there for 5 seasons, having played no less than 211 matches under the Gunners tunic (73 goals scored and 31 assists provided).
Since then, the French striker has returned to Ligue 1 and to Olympique Lyonnais. The 33-year-old who had a brilliant 2023-2024 season with 22 goals in all competitions is experiencing some difficulties at the start of the season with only 2 goals in 12 days.
