Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is reportedly on the radar of Real Madrid.

According to The Express, Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane is interested in signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Arsenal in the summer transfer window.

However, according to the report, the Gabon international is not the first-choice striker target for Spanish and European giants Madrid.

It has been reported that Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Braut Haaland and Sadio Mane of Liverpool are Madrid’s first and second-choice options respectively.
