Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has laid down certain conditions for him to leave the Emirates Stadium in the January transfer window, according to The Athletic.
The Athletic have reported this morning that Aubameyang does not want to leave Arsenal for a club in the Middle East.
The Gabon international striker wants to stay in a top league in Europe and continue to play at the highest level, if he leaves Arsenal this month.
Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal want to sign Aubameyang on loan in the January transfer window with an option to make the deal permanent in the summer of 2022.
French giants Paris Saint-Germain are also interested in the 32-year-old.
What should Arsenal do with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang?
In our view, if Arsenal are unable to sell Aubameyang in the January transfer window, then they should send him out on loan, but only if the club signing him are willing to pay his salary in full.
The striker reportedly earns £300,000 per week as salary.
That is a lot.
So, if clubs want Arsenal to subsidise that salary, then, in our view, the Gunners should simply keep him.
Yes, Aubameyang is not having a great season and has also had disciplinary issues, but he is still a good option to have for manager Arteta.
