‘Friendship with Auba helps us on the pitch’

Alex Lacazette says that his friendship with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is helping the duo combine on the pitch.

“When you’re friends off the pitch, it’s easier for you to play well together on it,” said the France striker.

“We work a lot in training, every day we work together and with the other players as well.
