Aubameyang: “Barça is one of the biggest clubs in the world”

The new signing of Barcelona was “happy” to play for the Barça club. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang closed his separation from Arsenal and began a new story at the Camp Nou. The Gabonese striker arrives from Arsenal with a release letter and signs for the Barça club until June 2025, with an agreed exit option on June 30, 2023.

In his first statements to the entity’s media after the operation became official, the 32-year-old striker described “honorary” sign for the blaugrana club.

“Barça is one of the biggest clubs in the world. That is why I have signed, it is an honor for me to be here”, assured the Gabonese striker born in France in a good Castilian.

The Spanish league will be the fourth of the major European competitions in which Aubameyang will play, something that he considers a point in his favor in his adaptation process: “I have experience, I have played in Germany, France and England. I’m here to help and do my best for the team”.

Aubameyang, 32, signed with Barcelona with a termination clause of 100 million euros. His incorporation was made official beyond the deadline for the registration of players for the winter market, which closed last Monday, since he signs with the Barça club as a free agent.

It should be noted that Aubameyang has only scored four goals in the Premier League this season, he was removed from the team in early December for an act of indiscipline. He returned late from a personal trip and broke the protocols against COVID-19. Arteta’s punishment went further and the African did not enter an Arsenal list since December 6.
