While FC Barcelona would like to secure its services in January, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would see himself as part of Xavi's project. Knowing that their captain has extra-sporting issues, Arsenal would be willing to let him go.
To relaunch FC Barcelona this season, Xavi would like to use the winter transfer window wisely. More specifically, the Catalan coach is said to have planned to hit hard in January and recruit a new center-forward. According to El Nacional's indiscretions, Xavi would have identified the profile of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in this sense. Moreover, the technician of Barça would have a big blow to play on this file, since the striker of Arsenal would be ready to answer his call. And to do more Xavi's business, the Gunners could be cooperative for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Arsenal leaves the door open for Aubameyang
While he will be at the end of his contract on June 30, 2023, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would still be far from an extension with Arsenal. According to El Nacional, the Gabon international would remain an indisputable Mikel Arteta player on the pitch, but his extra-sporting problems would totally revive his future. Indeed, his situation would be sufficiently hectic at the moment for the Gunners coach to agree to let him go, even if he is one of his best assets and his captain. FC Barcelona can therefore smile broadly.
