West Ham United want to sign Arsenal striker this summer
West Ham United have emerged as fresh contenders to sign Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette this summer.
The Frenchman has less than four months remaining on his deal, and no contract talks are planned at the moment.
Mikel Arteta has said that negotiations will be held this summer, but the striker appears more likely to leave the Gunners.
The north London giants are planning to pursue two marquee strikers. Lacazette may not want to play back-up.
According to TEAMtalk, the Hammers have now emerged as potential candidates to sign the former Lyon man.
Lacazette has been in the English capital for nearly five seasons, and he could be tempted to continue in the city.
The Hammers are likely to table an offer this summer, but they could face competition from several other European clubs.
Lyon are keen on re-signing the Frenchman while Barcelona and Roma are keeping a close eye on his current situation.
Lacazette is likely to demand a three-year contract at least.
