Arsenal will reportedly face stiff competition from Borussia Dortmund in the pursuit of Lyon forward Alexandre Lacazette this summer.

According to Bild (h/t Alex Richards of the Daily Mirror) the Bundesliga side will swoop to sign the Frenchman should they lose Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the upcoming window; as noted in the piece, the Gabon international has been linked with a potential exit.

That would be a blow for Arsenal, as the Gunners have made Lacazette their top target, with manager Arsene Wenger looking to liven up his attacking options, according to Richards.
