Aubameyang’s contract at the Emirates runs up until 2021, so Arsenal are to either cash in on him this summer or the player could leave for free next summer should he not sign on a new deal with the north London outfit.
Nevertheless, fans can take some encouragement from AFC still fighting to keep hold of Aubameyang against all the odds.
