Arsenal have signed on Borussia Dortmund forward
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
News that the transfer had gone through came via Arsenal’s official
Twitter account on Wednesday.
As noted by football writer Lars Pollmann, the Bundesliga side
informed their shareholders of the fee received for the forward:
Dortmund director Michael Zorc had mixed things to say about
Aubameyang following his departure, per Charles Watts of
Football.London:
The acquisition of Aubameyang is a crucial one for the Gunners, who
have spent big to replace Alexis Sanchez, who departed midseason for
Manchester United.
It’s a transfer that brings an end to four-and-a-half years at
Dortmund for Aubameyang.
