Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang | Orny says deal to Arsenal dependent on Dortmund getting replacement

He turns 29 years in a couple of months and Dortmund wants to sell him to get a replacement.
He isn't as good and as effective as last season so I understand Dortmund.

I don't really understand why Aubameyang would switch Champions League for Europa League (or even less). Arsenal would have to double his salary and hope nobody else is interested.

Everyone knows Arsenal is not his dream club, he promised his grandpa to play for Real one day, but Real isn't interested. So Arsenal should go for it.

Lert me call this.

AFTER years of muppeting over high profile player swaps, we´ll finally have one. Aubameyang will go to Arsenal for Giroud plus €60M. Dortmund can´t get the €100M Aubameyang´s on pitch production is worth, because of his off-pitch escapades, but they want him out. They have been interested in Giroud. Giroud has been interested in them.

Finally. Officially 1 out of 243. I will now open my new Twitter handle: IntheknowVeryInsider.

That´s not enough Arsenal. Please.

But both are in Europa at the moment and Dortmund are in a nine or ten team battle to reach next year’s CL domestically. It’s a long shot but if his relationship with the team has turned really bad I could see him thinking his odds of reaching the CL wouldn’t be much worse with Arsenal.
 
I love how Arsene is standing on the Titanic and still patiently negotiating the terms of the size, colour and brand of the rescue vessel. Pay up, you fool. Who are you going to get finishing 6th, while losing your two best players?
 
It really isn't.
He drops deep to play a pass and thats it. His all round play has been shocking but poor Wenger gets the blame
 
Wouldn't mind Arsenal getting him. He's good, not fantastic. The main pro is that if Giroud leaves, they won't have anyone to bail them out in the 90th minute 200 times per season.

Dortmund fire Tuchel over headscout to hire Bosz, headscout leaves three months later and starts raiding their players. Okay it´s an exaggeration, but still. All that´s missing now is that Tuchel joins Arsenal as Wenger´s successor. :lol:
 
Aubameyang's not in the squad again.

I'm choosing to believe that the unsubstantiated rumours that Ozil will re-sign are proof that the unsubstantiated rumours that Aubameyang will sign are true.
 
He has missed his flight to the Dortmund away game, and this time he´s not the only one that knows about it. :D

Seems this deal is inevitable, unless Arsene starts arguing over €5M transfer fee here or there.

It's not an exaggeration, Dortmund have made some terrible decisions in the last 6-8 months that have lead the club into free-fall. Tuchel was the one manager available to take them to challenging Bayern and they fired him because of internal politics. Now their best player is leaving in the winter, rather than in the summer when he should've left, and they have spent the Dembele money terribly signing Yarmalenko; buying Giroud or Michi to replace Auba will be even more terrible than that.

They're slowly going back into the mediocrity of the mid 00's.
 
To be fair to Wenger, if he loses Sanchez who was going anyway and gets in Mkhi and woah black betty Aubameyang woah black betty Aubameyang, it will be a very decent window for him (as well as us). Even better if he gets Ozil to sign up.

Needs defenders and cms more though!
 
Replacing Sanchez with Aubameyang would be fantastic work by Arsenal to be fair. They haven't had that level of striker since RVP. Although, he will drive Arsenal fans crazy with the amount of chances he misses.

They've also replaced Walcott with Mkhitryan. Overall they'd have had a very good transfer window.

Sorry, need to clarify. The exaggeration being that they only fired Tuchel, because of the incident with the scout. But I agree that they have made some horrible decisions lately. They had the core pieces to really push forward and make themselves a European powerhouse, but they were scared and scarred by their past. Now I agree they look like they´ll fall back into the pack.

At the same time, Schalke is losing Goretzka and Meyer(?). Leverkusen will probably lose Brandt and guys like Bailey and Havertz eventually. Leipzig has lost Keita already, and the big guns are ready to pounce on Werner and to a lesser extent Forsberg.
 
Arsenal and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, have agreed on a 3.5 year contract with a 10m-a-year net wage.

€10m = £8.81m. UK's tax rate is 45% so he will earn £16m before tax or around £300k a week.

So, wages are €35m NET, or ~ €77.8m over the 3-and-a-half year period.

Borussia is asking for €60-70m for his transfer, so I wonder if the British media will quote the cost of the player at €142m / £115m (or does total cost apply only Sanchez and United?)

Basically all those deals bring players to man utd
 
Dortmund will be fine. I don't rate Aubameyang that highly tbh. He won't bring Arsenal to new heights.
Dortmund on the other hand is stronger - and will continue to be - than 16 teams in Germany including Leipzig which means that they will qualify for the CL four out of five times.
Even without Aubameyang they are so far ahead of every team bar Bayern.

13 goals and 3 assists. Behind only Lewandowski on 15 goals (0 assists).

Overall he's contributed to more direct goals than any other player in the league. He is the most effective attacking player in that league on stats alone.

and he still missed a lot of chances (lewandowski too) and missed some games. He gets in good positions very often.

All they need to do now is sell Reus, Guerreiro and Weigl. They will find a way to do just that.
It's a shame. What a team they had not too long ago.

A lot of clubs would do well to get Guerreiro out of Dortmund. Quality player.

One of the best left backs in the world, for sure. And he is competent in playing a number of other positions across the field including central midfield and both wings up top. Eye for a pass, hell of a shot and very good at set pieces.
 
Well, I guess he doesn't want to play international football anymore. More time for his wife and two kids.
His dream was to play for Real Madrid one day. Dortmund wants to sell him and no Real, Barca or Bayern are waiting.
That's what you get for being so egocentric and unprofessional. :D

I am glad that we didn't go for him. Sanchez is the real deal and we don't need another striker.
 
Would be an incredible signing for Arsenal if they manage it. Very adaptable player, kind Wenger would like, also lightening fast, scores goals, gets assists, and technically superb. World class. Also had a good understanding with Mkhitaryan iirc during that season.

If it goes through we get a better player in Sanchez and Arsenal arguably strengthen their first XI as well.
 
An above average player. Maybe good. That's it.

„Very adaptable“, „gets assists“ and „technically superb“ are not words with which I would describe Aubameyang. He is a very good (and sometimes wasteful) striker though.
 
He's joining arsenal at the worst possible time. Fans are restless and want rid of the manager and they look on course for another 6th place finish. From everything everyone says about his poor attitude, I don't see how he'll be the one to drag them out of their slump.
