Mikel Arteta was delighted to see Alex Lacazette find the net in Saturday's 2-0 win over Wolves.

Our France international had endured a long wait - dating back to February 2019 - for an away goal in the Premier League, but finished superbly to wrap up the victory at Molineux.

The boss reserved special praise for Laca, confessing that he'd always been a fan of our forward's qualities and work rate - but admitted that talks over the forward's future will take place 'in the right moment'.

"I'm delighted for him because he completely deserved it," Arteta said.
