Furthermore, there has been talk of Aubameyangnot even returning to Arsenal once Gabon’s involvement in the competition is over as brettbarley.com have previously reported that he has attracted interest from clubs in Italy, France and Spain with the view to a January transfer.
It remains to be seen if the former Gunners captain is still at the club come February 1, 2022, but what he’s done whilst on international duty appears to have endeared him to supporters even more.
As spotted on Reddit, Aubameyang – who missed Gabon’s 1-0 win over Comoros after testing positive for Covid-19 – was seen wearing this season’s Arsenal shirt as he posed for a picture recently.
And it’s safe to say the image has delighted a number of fans.
ATX_GUNN3R said: “He still loves the club and I still love him, no matter what happens. Seems like a good human.”
Echo361 said: “Definitely a good guy despite a lack of punctuality.”
Isd14 said: “It’s good to see Auba in an Arsenal shirt. Love the guy.”
Sea_Cheetah3665 said: “Arsenal in his DNA!”
This comes amid talk of Aubameyang being replaced at Arsenal this month.
Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic has been heavily linked with a transfer to the Emirates Stadium as Arteta looks to bolster his attacking options for the second half of the season.
Although, any deal for the Serbia international will be an expensive one, according to the Daily Mail.
The report states that the north Londoners have been told that the 21-year-old wants £160,000-per-week in wages and that Fiorentina are demanding a transfer fee of £58million, with the player’s camp demanding £15m in fees – something that is said to have put several clubs off signing him.
