Alexandre Lacazette would be a clever signing for Arsenal, claims former Gunner Mikael Silvestre.
Arsenal have opened talks with Lyon over a possible switch, having chased Lacazette for a number of years. They made a formal £35million offer for the hotshot last summer.
Lacazette is being chased by a number of Europe's top sides, although Atletico Madrid may have to bow out of the race after their transfer ban was upheld until January.
And Silvestre thinks Arsenal should make a move, as they would, in his eyes, be boosted by the addition of another reliable goalscorer.
