Tag: Pierre Emerick Aubameyang

Arsenal’s move for Borussia Dortmund striker, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang is edging closer as the Gabonese father who is also his agent has landed in London to discuss personal terms with the Gunners.

Aubameyang ran into more disciplinary problems at the weekend when he skipped an important team meeting and was dropped for their game against Wolfsburg.

This latest episode of ill-discipline seems to be the final straw as his club’s president admitted that there is a limit to what they can tolerate.

Arsenal have agreed to sell Alexis Sanchez to Manchester United this month, but they want to have a replacement in place first before selling off the Chilean.

Manchester United have offered them Henrikh Mkhitaryan, but they want an attacker who is capable of replacing the goals that Sanchez’s departure would take away from the team.

Bordeaux’s Malcom is also expected to make the switch this month if Mkhitaryan decided against being used as a sweetener in the Sanchez deal.

Aubameyang has netted 21 goals in 23 games for Borussia Dortmund already this season.

Dortmund would sign Chelsea’s Michy Batshuayi as his replacement.

Arsenal are looking to complete the signing of Pierre Emerick Aubameyang this month.

The Gunners are set to let Alexis Sanchez leave in the next couple of days with Chelsea and Manchester United looking to prize the Chilean away.

Sanchez would likely join United for £30 million plus Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and the Gunners don’t want to waste time in replacing him.

Aubameyang has just run into fresh problems with Dortmund and was left out of their team for their weekend’s match, with the club’s boss claiming “there is a limit to what they can tolerate.”

Dortmund were among several teams who wanted to sign Giroud last summer, but the French man decided against leaving the Gunners.

However, playing time have been very limited this season and he is keen on leaving to save his World Cup spot.

Dortmund want £60 million for Aubameyang but his disciplinary problems mean any team trying to sign him would consider him a high-risk player.

Arsene Wenger also wants Malcom from Bourdeaux, but his priority is Aubameyang, and if he gets the Gabonese attacker, he would abandon his pursuit of the Brazilian youngster.
