Alexandre Lacazette has switched Lyon for Saudi Pro League club Neom SC.

The former Arsenal forward was out of contract with the French club, who were relegated to Ligue 2 last month due to financial issues.

While Lyon are set to appeal that decision, 34-year-old Lacazette will not be returning to the fold next season.

Instead, he has signed for Neom, who gained promotion to the Saudi Pro League last season.

Lacazette will join his former Lyon team-mate Said Benrahma in Neom's squad.

Last season, Lacazette scored 15 goals in Ligue 1, with only four players netting more in the competition in 2024-25.

Lyon could well face a mass exodus of players, if they fail to win their appeal against relegation.
