Tottenham and West Ham boost! Barcelona have bid knocked back for Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette

Tottenham and West Ham have been given a boost in their pursuit of Alexandre Lacazette after the striker rejected an offer from Barcelona.

The France international is expected to leave Lyon this summer after finding the net 20 times this season.

Barcelona had been viewed as the frontrunners for the 24-year-old's signature after they expressed a desire to bring him to the Nou Camp.

However, according to L'Equipe, Lacazette has now snubbed an offer from Spanish champions.

The striker reportedly has reservations about the move as he will not be guaranteed a starting spot.

The news will come as a boost to both Tottenham and West Ham, who are in hot pursuit of Lacazette.
