Arsenal fans are delighted and a bit bemused Liverpool are not challenging them for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The Gabon striker will be a tremendous addition for the Gunners – and what makes it even more astounding is that they have had a free run at the forward.
Many had been expecting Liverpool to make a move for Aubameyang – and fans had been calling for the Reds to get involved.
Arsenal fans are delighted at the imminent capture, and believe his signing will help them beat Liverpool to a Champions League spot.
Gooners have been toasting the move on social media, and mocking Liverpool’s decision not to challenge them for his signature.
Liverpool’s decision not to get involved in the hunt for Aubameyang is bizarre given the striker’s quality and what is at stake.
Arsenal seemed buried in the hunt for the top four after losing Alexis Sanchez but now will fancy their chances of making it in.
Liverpool have money available from selling Philippe Coutinho and current boss Jurgen Klopp even managed Aubameyang at Dortmund.
Their decision to leave Arsenal to sign Aubameyang could come back to haunt them.
