Aubameyang Rues Manner Of Arsenal Departure
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has rued the manner of his exit from Arsenal.
Aubameyang’s departure from Arsenal has been confirmed and he is expected to be announced as a Barcelona player soon.
The Gabon international joined Arsenal from Borussia Dortmund in January 2018 and he scored 92 goals in 162 appearances for the club.
Aubameyang led Arsenal to FA Cup glory in the 2019/2020 season but was stripped of the captaincy in December after a disciplinary breach.
Taking to Instagram after his exit was confirmed, Aubameyang wrote: "To the Arsenal fans, thank you for making London home for myself and my family for the past four years. We went through ups and downs together and your support meant everything to me.
"Having the chance to win trophies and the honour of being the captain of this club is something I will forever keep in my heart.
"I have always been 100 per cent focused and committed on doing everything I can for this club which is why leaving without a real goodbye hurts – but that is football.
"I'm sad I did not get the chance to help my team-mates in the last few weeks, but I have nothing but respect for this club and truly wish all my guys and the fans all the best and many successful years in the future! Love, Auba."
