Some Arsenal fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation that the Gunners are willing to sell Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
What’s the story?
The Times are reporting today that Arsenal are willing to offload Aubameyang in the summer transfer window.
The Gunners are also ready to sell France international striker Alexandre Lacazette now.
So, that would leave Arsenal without their two most senior strikers.
What’s the Gunners’ plan thereafter?
Well, according to the report, Arsenal want to sign Tammy Abraham from Chelsea and are willing to pay the England international striker £125,000 a week.
Interestingly, both Aubameyang and Lacazette will miss Arsenal’s Premier League game against Brentford this evening because they are unwell, according to The Athletic.
What are Arsenal fans saying?
As you can see from the tweets below, Arsenal fans seem divided over the prospect of Aubameyang potentially leaving this summer.
The Gabon international striker struggled last season after signing a new contract.
Aubameyang scored 10 goals and gave three assists in the league last season.
The former Borussia Dortmund star is also 32 now.
The problem that Arsenal will face in trying to sell the striker – who cost them £56 million in transfer fee in January 2018, according to BBC Sport – is that he earns a reported £250,000 per week as salary.
