Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang: Arsenal superstar drops a massive transfer hint to China with his social media activity amid transfer speculations.
Arsenal superstar Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had a phenomenal season with the Gunners, as the Gabonese striker became the joint top-scorer of the Premier league season after scoring 22 goals for Arsenal during this campaign.
Considering his phenomenal run, the North-London club were set to offer a significant pay-rise in the new contract. However, the player has shocked the Arsenal fans, after Aubamenyang removed his profile photo in Arsenal shirt and deleted his Instagram photo.
Here is the image
Various reports suggest that Gabon striker has received staggering £300,000-a-week offers from both Guangzhou Evergrande and Shanghai SIPG which could potentially see him quit the Gunners this summer.
Thus, luring him to seek a move out of the Emirates stadium, as he is entering into the last phase of his career. The wage packet would be some improvement on Aubameyang current £190,000-a-week deal in North London club.
Amidst all the speculations, the Gabonese striker has caused a meltdown among the Arsenal fans, as the Arsenal striker is a lethal resource for the Gunners upfront.
However, Arsenal are trying to offer him new contract extension with a lucrative deal to ward-off interests from other clubs.
Meanwhile some hope it may have something to do with Arsenal’s 2019/20 kit launch, a number of supporters began speculating that Aubameyang may have played his last game for the club in the Europa league final defeat against Chelsea.
On the brighter side, Arsenal can still control the transfer as Aubameyang have two years remaining in his current contract with Arsenal. Thus, giving them advantage to thwart the attempts by the Chinese clubs.

This could mean nothing, and probably we are reading too much into it, but Aubameyang has removed Arsenal from his bio on Instagram. Also, the profile pic which was him wearing Arsenal shirt has been removed (temporarily at least). pic.twitter.com/XwjWYtJZ9w

Aubameyang's Insta profile has ruined my week. Yep, the bloke is leaving us for China.

The Aubameyang Instagram situation is strange. Losing him wouldn’t be a nightmare as he has massive holes in his game as long as we replace him adequately. We should get around £70m if we did sell him, so I guess roll on signing Carlos Bacca.
