LIVERPOOL, Arsenal and Manchester City are all willing to pay £35million to land Alexandre Lacazette from Lyon, according to reports.
Alexandre Lacazette Player Profile
Lacazette has topped the scoring charts in Ligue 1 this season and attracted admiring glances from the Premier League.
Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly keen to keep the player in France while Lyon insist the 23-year-old won't be sold as they prepare to move into their new stadium.
Reports yesterday suggested that Arsenal were preparing a £22m bid to tempt Lyon to change their stance.
But fresh reports today suggest that they are among a host of clubs willing to pay substantially more than that.
According to France Football, the Premier League trio 'wouldn't think twice' about paying £35m for a top-class striker.
