‘See you soon’ – Arsenal star Alexandre Lacazette hints at Barcelona transfer in emotional farewell post to Aubameyang

ALEXANDRE LACAZETTE appears to have hinted at a future move to Barcelona after sending an emotional farewell to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Arsenal released the Gabon striker from his £350,000-a-week contract on Monday which allowed him to join LaLiga side Barca for nothing.


Aubameyang, 32, has penned a three-year contract at the Nou Camp as he looks to resurrect his career after being exiled at the Emirates due to a fall-out with Mikel Arteta.

After the ex-Borussia Dortmund man was officially presented in Catalonia, his former team-mate at Arsenal decided to still pay tribute with a goodbye message on Twitter.

Sharing a snap of them together celebrating for the Gunners, the Frenchman wrote: “My bro !! Thanks for the last 4 years , my experience in arsenal would have been different without you.. Wish you good luck in your next chapter !”

And in a cryptic ending, Lacazette added with a smirking and laughing emoji: “See you soon.”

Lacazette is out of contract at Arsenal in June and looks set to depart for nothing after failing to agree to an extension.

The 30-year-old has scored 70 goals in 192 games for the North London club but is believed to have former side Lyon chasing his services.
