Aubameyang deal to be completed in next 48 hours

According to sportwitness, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will complete his move from Borussia Dortmund to Arsenal in the coming days, with his father, who is also his agent, arriving in London to finalise a deal.

Aubameyang, 28, has been regarded as one of the top strikers in Europe for some time and looks set to be the Gunners’ marquee signing in the transfer window, with the fee expected to be around €70 million.

The Gabon international has been with Dortmund since 2013, and has been a prolific goal scorer across his five years with the club. The forward has scored 44 goals in his previous 47 appearances in the Bundesliga, and now looks set to test himself in the Premier League under Arsene Wenger.

Arsenal look set to lose Alexis Sanchez to a rival this month, and with Theo Walcott on Merseyside to complete a £20 million deal to Everton, Gunners fans will welcome the news that Wenger is looking to bolster his attacking options in the next two weeks.
