Scouting Report & Player Insights

Alexandre Lacazette is a veteran French striker known for his clinical finishing, sharp movement between the lines, and strong hold-up play as a false nine or focal point. A boyhood hero at Olympique Lyonnais and former Arsenal captain, he returned to Lyon before a 2025 move to Neom in the Saudi Pro League. Though his pace has faded with age, his first touch, composure in front of goal, and link play remain effective at a lower competitive level than his prime European years.

Long-time Olympique Lyonnais captain and club legend before joining Arsenal in 2017.

Captained Arsenal and won the FA Cup with the club before returning to Lyon in 2022.

Multiple-time France international forward.
