Some weeks ago, Aubameyang had more than one foot out the Arsenal door and now he is firmly set to stay at the Premier League club. The striker had several offers and even his own fans had had a go at him at the end of July.
Not even 30 days had gone by and his situation has changed completely. The Gabonese has gone from being on the verge of leaving to being about a sign a new deal at Arsenal," the 'Daily Mail' reports.
The striker's contract at the club ends in 2021 and he is about to sign for three more seasons, although not at any price. Arsenal have had to get their cheque book out to persuade him to stay.
Aubameyang will become the best paid player at the club. He will get 14.5 million euros a season instead of 11 million.
The Gabonese is convinced that penning a new contract is the best option and Mikel Arteta already said that he would build a team around Aubameyang for next season. The North Londoners have already signed Willian.
