Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has welcomed new signing Stephan Lichtsteiner to the club.

Lichtsteiner clinched his move to the Gunners this week, becoming new manager Unai Emery’s first signing.

He is currently on international duty with Switzerland ahead of the World Cup and will link up with the Gunners in late July.

Aubameyang’s message to Lichtsteiner was retweeted more than 5,000 times by Arsenal supporters.

Aubameyang will be watching the World Cup after Gabon failed to qualify.

He has already made his decision on who he will support, telling Gunners teammate Alex Iwobi he has decided to cheer on his Nigeria… because of their kit.

It is a shame for neutral fans that a striker as good as Aubameyang won’t be gracing the world stage this summer, but for Arsenal fans, it can only be positive.

The Gabon forward will be back early for pre-season, rested up, and ready to fire on all cylinders to try and get the Emery era off to a flier.
