Juventus are interested in signing Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as they aim to bring attacking reinforcements in January, according to reports. The 32-year-old has been frozen out by manager Mikel Arteta for a disciplinary breach. He has also been stripped of his captaincy by the Spanish boss. The Gabon international hasn’t played any match for the Gunners since the start of December. Now his future at the Emirates Stadium looks highly uncertain and several clubs have been linked with the striker. His current contract at the London club is set to expire in 2023, having penned a three-year deal with the club in the summer of 2020. According to Gazzetta Dello Sport (via Sport Witness), Juventus have Aubameyang on a three-man transfer sho...
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has defended his decision to freeze Pierre Emerick Aubameyang out of his squad amid huge criticism from Piers Morgan. The 32-year-old hasn’t played for the Gunners since the start of December as he has been punished by the Spanish boss for a disciplinary breach. The Gabon international penned a lucrative new three-year contract with the London side in the summer of 2020. However, his form has dropped since then and he has been struggling to perform well for his side. After missing the opening match against Brentford, the experienced striker went on to play the next 14 Premier League games for the Gunners, earning his name on the scoresheet on four occasions and creating an assist. However, he was frozen out of the squad after he co...
While a departure from Arsenal is seriously looming this summer, the Gabonese striker already has a prestigious contender. Arsenal set to discuss Aubameyang with European giants In recent years, the name of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has often been linked to the biggest European teams. The likes of Barcelona and PSG have shown interest in the past. But what about now? We can imagine that his rating has dropped a little, after managing just four goals in fourteen games in the Premier League. However, a big club remains interested in the Arsenal man’s profile. As Tuttosport indicates, Juventus are studying the possibility of signing the Gabon international during the January transfer window. There is no question yet of a formal offer from the Old Lady for the former Milan man. However, he is ...

Arsenal are eyeing up a move to sign Sevilla hitman Youssef En-Nesyri according to an exclusive report from La Colina de Nervion. Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is allegedly eyeing up potential replacements for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Gabonese hitman has been in poor form since signing a new deal with Arsenal last season. And it seems as though Arteta has his eye on someone who he thinks will actually be an upgrade on the 32-year-old.

A selection of Arsenal fans were pleased for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as he grabbed a hat-trick in the 6-0 win over West Bromwich Albion on Wednesday. The Gunners made the trip to the Hawthorns for the Carabao Cup second round tie, and they were clear favourites when the matchday squads were put up. Baggies boss Valerien Ismael handed surprise debuts to six academy players. It was expected that the Gunners would win comfortably on the night. They still needed to produce a strong performance after back-to-back league defeats, and Aubameyang stood out with a hat-trick alongside an assist. He scored his first two goals with simple tap-ins while assisting Nicolas Pepe before the break. His bicycle kick ended up into a nice pass for the Ivorian. Shortly after the hour mark, Aubameyang appeared...
Arsenal have this evening revealed a late update on the fitness of Emile Smith Rowe, ahead of their showdown with Burnley. Mikel Arteta’s men are set to return to action tomorrow afternoon, in a Premier League meeting with the Clarets. The Gunners will of course head into the Turf Moor clash with their tails up, on the back of a morale boosting pair of wins over the last couple of weeks. First, a last-gasp Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang header saw Arsenal get the better of Benfica, to book their spot in the Last-16 of the Europa League. And this was followed last weekend by a hugely impressive 3-1 downing of Leicester City at the King Power Stadium. The news, as a whole, proved of a positive nature, with only two players – including 3rd-choice goalkeeper Alex Runarsson – struggling as things st...
Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang hailed the mentality of midfielder Dani Ceballos after the club secured their progress to the last 16 of the Europa League. The Gunners won their last 32 tie against Benfica with a 4-3 aggregate win but it was far from straightforward as plenty of drama unfolded at the Karaiskaki Stadium last night. The club already had an away goal advantage after the 1-1 draw in the first leg and they took the lead in the 21st minute in Piraeus through Aubameyang. However, Benfica levelled the scores through a stunning free-kick from Diogo Goncalves in the 41st minute which found the top left corner of Bernd Leno’s net. The set-piece came about from Ceballos’ needless tackle and the Spaniard had another horror moment after the hour mark of the contest. ...
Arsenal set an unwanted record during Thursday night’s Europa League draw with Benfica which ended 1-1 after being caught offside 10 times. A Bukayo Saka equaliser saw Arsenal fight back from a goal down to snatch a draw – and an all-important away goal – in their Europa League last-32 first-leg clash in Rome. Incredibly, the North Londoners were caught offside a staggering 10 times, which is more than any other Premier League side in all competitions this season. Club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was responsible for four of those. The previous record had been held by Manchester United, who were flagged eight times during their goalless Premier League draw with Liverpool last month. Crystal Palace were caught offside seven times in their 7-0 home mauling at the hands of Liverpool in D...
