Alexandre Lacazette deal to join arsenal almost complete.

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has confirmed Alexandre Lacazette's move to Arsenal should be completed "within the next day or two".
Arsenal's opening bid of £39m was turned down last month, but significant progress has been made in talks between the clubs.
Aulas confirmed the deal is worth up to £43.8m (€50m), meaning it would eclipse the club-record £42.5m Arsenal paid for Mesut Ozil four years ago.
Alexandre Lacazette's transfer to Arsenal could be actioned within the next day or two.
"The figure reported by the English media of around €67m (including €12m in add-ons) is impossible and not realistic. Arsenal's first offer was around €45m, the transfer will be concluded in the range of €45m to €50m.
The striker netted 37 times in 45 games last season
"It constitutes, without doubt, a record transfer fee for Arsenal, [sic] and for Lyon of course!"
Last month, Lacazette said he would only move to a club who are playing in Europe's premier club competition but it appears the 26-year-old's stance on the matter has softened.
Lacazette had verbally agreed to join Atletico Madrid this summer but the move fell through after the Court of Arbitration for Sport confirmed on June 1 that Atletico would be banned from registering players during this window.
Robert Pires believes Arsenal need a big summer in the transfer market to challenge for the Premier League
The free-scoring striker netted 37 times in 45 games last season and has two years left on his existing Lyon deal.
Lacazette boasted the highest chance conversion rate in Europe's top five leagues last season (38.9 per cent). His record of 28 league goals last term was more than the combined tally of Arsenal quartet Olivier Giroud, Theo Walcott, Danny Welbeck and Lucas Perez.

Google Play Store Removes UC Browser App From Its Listing

The  Google Play Store  has seemingly removed the UC Browser app from its  online marketplace  months after the Alibaba-owned browser was allegedly transmitting personal information of its users to a server located in China. Google, however, has yet to comment on the incident and it remains unclear whether or not UC Browser’s removal from the Play Store is related to the privacy issue facing the  mobile browser. A Twitter user who claims to be working for UC Browser posted what seemed like a clarifying statement, saying the browser’s dismissal from Google’s online marketplace is a temporary matter and will only last for a few days. The incident took place because of what the UCWeb employee claimed as deceptive ways of growing install stats by the browser. In a statement, the UC Browser developer also explained that the mobile browser’s expulsion from the Google Play Store is due to some settings of the mobile solution that did not conform with Google’s policy, adding that the re
