# Dortmund ready to demand €70m for Aubameyang

Arsenal are determined to sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Borussia Dortmund this month, but the Bundesliga outfit will not let their star man go cheaply.

According to a report from German news magazine Kicker, as cited by the [Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/transfer-news-live-arsenal-sanchez-11870758?service=responsive), Borussia Dortmund will demand a fee of €70 million for the Gabon international.

Aubameyang has proved to be a controversial figure at Dortmund. He has been excluded from the club’s squads on a couple of occasions this season due to disciplinary reasons and he is set to be excluded from the team’s trip to Hertha Berlin at the weekend.

Arsenal are looking to land Aubameyang as a replacement for Alexis Sanchez, who appears to be poised to complete a move to Manchester United in the coming days.

The Gunners have been in active discussions with Dortmund over a move for Aubameyang but it looks like they will need to cough up a club-record fee if they are to secure his signature this month.
