Lyon's "Olympique" attacking leader Alexandre Lacazette unexpectedly stated that he would not refuse the opportunity to wear the "Juventus" shirt.
The striker, who has scored fourteen goals in the "Ligue 1" championship, voluntarily shared his thoughts before the UEFA Europa League quarter-final match, which will be the first official game between the two teams.
"I would be lying if I denied the desire to play for the most successful Italian club. I am attracted to foreign elite clubs and Juventus is no exception," said the Frenchman.
"However, my current job is to score goals for Lyon and I hope to do so in the match against Juventus. We know very well that they will not lack motivation for the final in Turin, but it did not affect our enthusiasm at all," assured A. Lacazette.
This season, the 22-year-old striker has played 37 official matches, scored 19 goals, and provided 3 assists.
On Thursday, the French club's match at "Gerland" stadium will kick off at 22:00 Lithuanian time.
