Arsenal's new record signing Alexandre Lacazette is targeting titles after securing his "dream" move to the Gunners.
Arsenal signed Lacazette on a five-year deal from Lyon on Wednesday for club-record fee which could rise to £52m over the course of his contract at the Emirates.
Lacazette becomes the latest Frenchman to lead the line for the Gunners, following in the footsteps of Nicolas Anelka, Sylvain Wiltord, Olivier Giroud and club legend Thierry Henry.
The 26-year-old is delighted to have finally secured his "dream" move to north London and is determined to win titles in his debut season in English football

"I want to give one hundred per cent in every match," Lacazette told the club's official website. "I want to show I'm worthy of the shirt. I want to do everything I can to make sure we win titles."
"I am, of course, delighted and very proud too because Arsenal is a legendary club," Lacazette added.
"Throughout my childhood, thanks to Thierry Henry and other French players, I always dreamed of playing for this club so today that dream has been fulfilled."
Arsene Wenger believes Lacazette can help the Gunners challenge for the Premier League, and the France international is relishing the chance to work under the long-time Arsenal manager.
