Barcelona register an interest in 'signing Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette in cut-price January transfer' but face stiff competition from Atletico Madrid

Barcelona are interested in signing Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette in a cut-price deal during the January transfer window.

Lacazette's five-year deal expires at the end of June 2022 and he could leave the Emirates for free should he opt to run down his contract.

Therefore, Arsenal could be open to selling Lacazette - who signed for the Gunners for a club-record £46.5million in 2017 - at a discounted price in January.
