French striker Mathieu "Lacazette" Lacazette has set a new record for the most goals scored in a single season in French football after leading Lyon to the top of the league table.

The 27-year-old has scored 24 goals so far this season, which is more than any other player in the league and sets a new record for the highest goal tally in a single campaign.

Lacazette has been a key player for Lyon this season, scoring 16 goals in just 15 games. He has also provided three assists, helping his team to maintain their lead at the top of the league.

The record-breaking performance by Lacazette has not gone unnoticed, and he has become a fan favourite at the Parc OL. The forward's performances have helped to lift the spirits of the Lyon fans who have struggled with recent struggles on the pitch.

However, despite his impressive form, Lacazette will face competition from some of the other top strikers in France, including Paris Saint-Germain's Edinson Cavani and Manchester United's Romelu Lukaku. But regardless of the competition, Lacazette's record-breaking performance shows that he is one of the best strikers in Europe and could continue to dominate in the coming seasons.
