Following his move to Barcelona, let’s take a look at how Aubameyang became a superstar, and how it fell apart for him in his final months at Arsenal.
In January 2018, in one of his final major acts as Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger signed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for around £60million, a club record at the time. One of Europe’s most prolific goal scorers, the former Borussia Dortmund star was an instant success at the Emirates, elevating the Gunners attack and registering 70 goals across his first two-and-a-half seasons in England.
But four years later, and the Gabon legend has been let go for free eighteen months before the end of his contract, and is reportedly set to lose out on €7million-worth of wages in the second half of the 21-22 season as a result of his move to Barcelona, having seen his performances decline and relationship with Arsenal deteriorate over the last 18 months.
But how did Aubameyang become one of this generation’s greatest strikers? And where did it all go wrong? On today’s EFD Explained, we’re going to find out.
