04 June, 2020
As he enters the final year of his contract, Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubamayang could reportedly be accessible for a cut-price of just £20 million (R428 million).
In line with the Sun, the Gabon international happens to be earning £180 000 (R3.8 million) weekly in wages, and the Premier League outfit is reluctant to let its top goalscorer leave as a free of charge agent.
Arsenal's head of football Raul Sanllehi has reportedly mentioned that the club can do its utmost to avoid players from running down their contracts without the resale value.
Aaron Ramsey, Jack Wilshere, Petr Cech and Danny Welbeck are among many high-profile players who've left the Emirates Stadium recently as contract renewals were either rejected or not forthcoming.
With Aubameyang's contract set to expire on 30 June 2021, and the coronavirus pandemic influencing many clubs' finances, it really is believed the Gunners would agree to a fee of £20 million for the player who turns 31 in two weeks' time, as per The Sun.
Boasting an impressive record of 61 goals in 97 appearances across all competitions since his move from Borussia Dortmund to London in 2018, the African superstar has made mention of his desire to complete his career at the best level and among Europe's elite.
Gunners head coach Mikel Arteta is set to have face-to-face talks with his captain to attempt to convince the forward to extend his stay at Arsenal beyond 2021.
