Danny Mills has suggested Alexandre Lacazette could sign a new contract at Arsenal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking exclusively to Football Insider<\/strong>, the ex-Leeds United and England defender claimed Lacazette looked like he had been “frozen out” but has benefitted from the fallout between Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Mikel Arteta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lacazette has skippered Arsenal after Aubameyang was stripped of the captaincy last month (14 December) and it has helped his form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The striker has scored twice and provided three assists in his last five Premier League starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His current contract expires at the end of the season and, as quoted by Sky Sports<\/a> last month (26 December), Arteta admitted it is causing a “cloud” over the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Maybe a year ago Lacazette was thinking ‘That’s me done. Aubaemyang’s taken the limelight, he’s the main man, he’s got the new deal and that’s pushed my nose out of joint’,” <\/em>Mills told Football Insider<\/strong> correspondent Connor Whitley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He’s maybe looking at it now and thinking ‘The Aubameyang situation, he could be going and we don’t really have another striker’. Maybe that’s given him a bit of a boost and a bit of a lift.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He might be thinking ‘This a great opportunity, maybe I can stay and be part of Arteta’s plans’.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s just how it happens sometimes. It’s not fallen lucky but he’s got an opportunity and at the moment, he’s grasping it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“If he’s going to be a decent striker with the other young, energetic players around him that could work.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“From a player who you thought might be frozen out a little bit, suddenly he’s becoming one of the main figures.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
