Arsenal financial squeeze opens door for Barcelona to launch Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang bid

Aubameyang wasted a crucial opportunity to keep Arsenal in the Europa League on Thursday night, firing wide from close range as the clock ran down.

After the striker posted an emotional Instagram message the following day, club legend Ian Wright urged the 30-year-old to sign a new deal.

“We love you!!! This club loves you. Our fans love you,” Wright replied. “Forget about last night. If you weren’t here with all due respect to the rest of our team we’d be in deep trouble.

“For you to score the amount of goals you are scoring whilst doing all that defending is just incredible!!! (Please stay and sign the ting).”

Aubameyang will be desperate to get Arsenal back on track on Monday night if he’s picked for their FA Cup fifth round visit to Portsmouth.
