How to read this: the headline is the Sunday Times Rich List’s own net worth estimate for Alexandre Lacazette (£27 million, published May 2022). We show it exactly as published and have not adjusted it for anything since, so keep in mind it is 4 years old. The figure was published in GBP; the US dollar amount next to it is our simple conversion at the European Central Bank reference rate of October 30, 2026, not a separate estimate.

Alexandre Lacazette is a French striker who captains Saudi Pro League club Neom SC. He came through the academy at Lyon, his home town club, and was the top scorer and player of the year in Ligue 1 in 2014-15. He moved to Arsenal in 2017 in a then club-record deal, won the FA Cup with them in 2020, and returned to Lyon in 2022, where he became the club's second-highest scorer of all time.

The Sunday Times valued his wealth at £27 million in May 2022, about $36.2 million at the October 30, 2026 exchange rate. That put him 14th on its list of the richest people in the UK aged 30 and under, and 9th among the 34 footballers on it.

How he made his money

Lacazette's wealth comes mainly from five seasons of wages at Arsenal, one of the Premier League's biggest payers, on top of his earnings at Lyon and sponsorship deals.

He qualified for the British list because he was living and playing in England when it was compiled. The reports we checked did not break down his fortune, so this page gives only the headline figure.

Career at a glance

Born in Lyon to a family of Guadeloupean origin, Lacazette scored the winning goal in the final of the 2010 European Under-19 Championship. He started out as a wide forward before Lyon turned him into a striker, and he scored freely for them for seven seasons.

At Arsenal he formed a partnership with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and reached the 2019 Europa League final. He won 16 caps for France, and as an over-age player he captained France to the silver medal at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. He joined Neom on a two-year deal in July 2025.

About this estimate

The Sunday Times publishes its Rich List every spring, along with a list of the 100 richest people in the UK aged 30 and under. The May 2022 edition included 34 footballers, and the Daily Star printed all of them with their figures. It valued Lacazette's wealth at the amount shown on this page. The paper bases its numbers on identifiable wealth such as earnings after tax, property and company stakes, not on salary alone.

This is the most recent Sunday Times figure for Lacazette that we could find. It has not been updated since 2022, so his wealth today is likely different. We show the figure as published, in pounds, with a rough dollar conversion at the October 30, 2026 exchange rate. Transfer fees and wages mentioned on this page are club spending or earnings, not wealth.
