Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is an Arsenal player (and we’re almost able to spell his name without checking Google).
The Gabonese striker’s arrival from Borussia Dortmund was confirmed on deadline day – despite the cat being let out of the bag days earlier by Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
Mkhitaryan, a former Dortmund teammate of Aubameyang, is expected to make his full debut in the weekend game against Everton, having come on from the bench in the midweek defeat at Swansea.
Aubameyang, however, may have to wait for his first appearance for his new club. Arsene Wenger revealed during his press conference on Friday that he will have to assess his new number 14, who is recovering from a sickness bug.
“I have to assess how well he is physically today and how well he feels,” Wenger said.
“He had a fever, so he could not practice a lot. He started yesterday, but was still not completely well.
