Barcelona have been offered the opportunity to sign Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette, a report from Calciomercato claims.

The Frenchman is currently in his fourth season with the Gunners and he has bagged 59 goals across all competitions.

Under manager Mikel Arteta, he has been in and out of the line-up and it is claimed that he is open to leaving the club.

His current deal expires in June next year and the Gunners have yet to open talks over a possible extension beyond that period.

Hence, his representative has offered his services to a number of elite European clubs and that includes Barcelona.

The Blaugrana have missed a genuine striker up front since the departure of Luis Suarez to Atletico Madrid last year.

Martin Braithwaite has barely been a success leading the line and Lacazette could be a quality upgrade on the Dane.

The Gunners may demand around £30m for Lacazette, should he head for the exit door during the summer transfer window.
