Alexandre Lacazette may have cost Arsenal over £50million, but even that transfer fee doesn't guarantee the French star the spotlight in London.

Lacazette endured a difficult start to life at Arsenal after signing from Lyon for a club-record fee in summer 2017, with the striker's stuttering form persuading Arsene Wenger to break that record in the very next transfer window by signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

If Aubameyang's arrival initially suggested that Lacazette's time in north London would soon be over, the surprise is that the Gunners' new coach Unai Emery has found a way to get both forwards into his team and working together.

Lacazette has hit five Premier League goals so far this season to earn a recall to the France squad, though his return was short-lived as he withdrew just a few hours later due to a slight groin injury.

Despite that setback, the 27-year-old has found his feet in London - and Lacazette declared his love for the English capital to Gunners legend Ian Wright.

Speaking to Wright in an interview for the Premier League's website, Lacazette said: "I love London.

"I came here to discover something different. It’s a great city, I like how people think here."

Lacazette also revealed that while he is a regular starter for one of the most popular teams in the world, he can often go about his daily routine without being recognised in London.

"Sometimes I have no hat, no glasses and people don’t recognise me," he added. "When I can work, chill and no one knows who I am, this is good."
