Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette has given the green light for Juventus to go ahead with a move to sign him this summer, rejecting West Ham and Arsenal in the process.

According to Calciomercato, the idea of playing for the Italian champions is appealing to Lacazette who has been heavily linked with a move away from Lyon this summer.

The Hammers have lodged several bids for the striker already this transfer window, the latest worth a reported £33m but the Ligue 1 side have turned them all down as they stand firm on their £40m asking price.

Arsenal had also been interested in the French international striker, who was omitted from Didier Deschamps’ squad for Euro 2016 despite scoring 23 times last term, but it appears he’s dead-set on a move to Turin.

Talks between the Serie A champions and Lyon have already taken place and news of this has filtered down to Lacazette who’s given the ‘ok’ to his representatives to agree a deal with the Old Lady.

West Ham have already lost out on Michy Batshuayi with the Marseille striker set for a £33m move to Chelsea, and Lacazette remains their number one priority this summer. However, it seems they might have to take their search elsewhere if Juventus press ahead with a deal.
