Alexandre Lacazette has made a move from Lyon to Neom SC, a club in the Saudi Pro League. The 34-year-old forward, who previously played for Arsenal, was out of contract with Lyon after they were relegated to Ligue 2 due to financial troubles. Although Lyon plans to contest this relegation, Lacazette will not be part of their squad next season.

Lacazette's transfer to Neom SC comes after the club secured promotion to the Saudi Pro League last season. He will reunite with his former Lyon teammate, Said Benrahma, at Neom. Last season in Ligue 1, Lacazette was prolific, scoring 15 goals. Only four players managed to score more than him during the 2024-25 campaign.

Lyon could face significant challenges if their appeal against relegation is unsuccessful. The club might experience a substantial player exodus as a result. Lacazette’s departure marks a significant change for Lyon as they navigate these uncertain times.

Lacazette's move signifies a fresh start in his career as he joins Neom SC. His experience and goal-scoring ability will be valuable assets for the Saudi club in their upcoming season.
