Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette is reportedly close to finalising a five-year deal with Arsenal after arriving at the club's London Colney HQ to undergo a medical.

Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette has reportedly arrived at Arsenal's training ground to undergo a medical, before putting pen to paper on a five-year deal.

The Gunners have reached an agreement to sign the France international, who will officially become their record signing - worth around £52m - in the next 24 hours.

Les Gones president Jean-Michel Aulas revealed on Sunday evening that negotiations were at an advanced stage, and it has been widely reported that the 26-year-old is now at Arsenal's London Colney HQ.

Former West Ham United target Lacazette, who was due to join Atletico Madrid this summer prior to their transfer ban being upheld, is expected to link up with his new teammates ahead of their pre-season trips to Australia and China.

Lacazette has scored 129 goals in 275 appearances for Lyon and will become Arsenal's second arrival of the summer.
