Former Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette’s house was reportedly burgled while he was playing during his final game before retiring. The French star was appearing in his 391st and final game for Lyon before he hangs up his boots at the end of the current season. However, his final appearance was said to have been overshadowed by the purported incident, which was claimed to have occurred on Saturday night.French publication Le Progres reported that his home was broken into by two burglars, who were said to have accessed a safe. The Items alleged to have been stolen include jewellery, luxury leather goods, and cash, in a robbery claimed to be valued at tens of thousands of pounds. The burglary was reported at 1.30am on Sunday morning, after two individuals were  seen in security footage, leading to local police launching an investigation.  Alexandre Lacazette, who spent five years with the Gunners, was appearing for Lyon in their match against Angers in Ligue 1.  It comes after Lyon coach Paulo Fonseca confirmed earlier this week that Lacazette would be departing the club Lyon when his contract runs out this summer.The Lyon club legend was honoured by fans ahead of last night’s game.Lacazette was the hero of that game as he netted both goals in his side’s 2-0 win over Angers. The goals took Lacazette past 200 goals for Lyon, having come through the club’s academy as a youngster. The alleged burglary is not the first to happen to Lyon players in recent years, with Georges Mikautadze being robbed at gunpoint last December. The post FormerArsenalstriker, Alexandre Lacazette’s houseburgled while playing in his final game before retirement appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
