Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette has bee꧅n described by Jack Wilshere as “different cl🌠ass”.

The 29-year-old has stepped up to the plate as Gunners capta🦩in in the absence of Pierreꦰ-Emerick Aubameyang.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta stripped the 32-year-old of the captaincy earlier thisℱ week.

“We expect all our players, p𒈔articularly our captain, to work to the rules and standards we have all set and agreed,” read an Arsenal statement.

While Arteta hasn’t disclosed how the striker broke the rules💜, he reportedly returned late from a trip abroad.

Lacazette was Auba⛎meyang’s vice-captain and has taken the armband in his absence.

Arsenal have won both of their games si𒁃nce the Gabon int🎃ernational dropped out of the squad.

Arteta has confirmed that a “leadership group”, whic🧸h includes Lacazette and Granit Xhaka, is currently in play.

Fol🐽lowing the win over West Ham, the Spaniard Lacazette for stepping🅰 up to the plate.

And speaඣkinꦛg to , Wilshere also lauded the Frenchman for his leadership skills.

The midfielder, currently training with the Gunners, spoke abou꧙t different styles of captaincy.

Lacazette a “contender” as captain who leads with the way he plays

“I don’t think you have to be that ไvocal,” said the 29-year-old.

“Do yo𝐆u have to be that vocal now to be a captain?

“There are different types of captains where you lead with the way you 🍬play.

“𝔉Lacazette was different clas🐬s (against West Ham). He would be a contender.”

🐷It’s all up in the air at ♛the moment as far as Arsenal’s captaincy is concerned.

Aubameyang hasn’t only had the armband taken off him, but🎐 he’s not even being piᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚcked.
