Arsenal are reportedly contemplating a swap deal with Sevilla involving Alexandre Lacazette and Youssef En-Nesyri.
Lacazette's Gunners deal is due to expire in the summer of 2022, and there is currently no indication that the Frenchman will be offered an extension.
As a result, Arsenal are running the risk of losing Lacazette on a free transfer after forking out £47m to sign him from Lyon in 2017, and the North London side are therefore said to be planning an unorthodox transfer.
With recent reports claiming that Arsenal are planning a swoop for En-Nesyri next year, Estadio Deportivo claims that the Gunners are hoping to include Lacazette as part of a deal to drive the price down.
En-Nesyri remains under contract at Sevilla until the summer of 2025, and Julen Lopetegui's side would reportedly demand a fee close to £40m in straight cash for the 24-year-old.
The Sevilla man already boasts three goals from six La Liga games this season, while Lacazette has only made one substitute appearance in the current Premier League campaign. body check tags ::
