Chelsea plan January move for Lacazette

Chelsea will reportedly launch a January offer for Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette.

The France international was associated with a move to the Premier League over the summer, with the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool keen on his services.

However, the 24-year-old opted to remain in his Ligue 1 by signing a new long-term deal with the French giants.

According to The Express, the Premier League holders will look to bolster their striking options in the New Year, and consider Lacazette as their top option.

It is added that they are hopeful the signing of Lacazette could deliver more goals in the second half of the campaign.

Lacazette has yet to open his goal-scoring account this term.
