A lot of the time, footballers often stand out in their families owing to the massive wages they earn and on rare occasions, a player follows in the footsteps of his father. In Alexandre Lacazette’s case, he’s the best out of an already shining bunch. I don’t know what it is that runs in the family, but both his cousin and older brother have played football to a high level professionally.

His cousin Romuald Lacazette currently plays for 1860 Munich, a team in the German football. In addition to that, Lacazette’s older brother played in the 2nd division of Swedish football before turning into a fully qualified coach.
