Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang wants to see Arsenal sign his friend
By Kian Long
Arsenal fans certainly wouldn’t be complaining if this were the case.
It’s no secret that Arsenal need all the help they can get when it comes to signings. This is by no means indicative of their recruitment team as it is one of the best, but it’s more down to their board, who quite frankly need to put their money where their mouth is.
This is why every little helps. Arsenal fans will love to see the players and manager pressurising the board as much as possible because it shows they are not complicent and they too want the best for the club.
According to a new report from Le10Sport, the main talisman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been very vocal in his demands for the summer transfer window. The outlet claims that he wants to see Arsenal sign Ousmane Dembele from Barcelona, a player who he worked very well alongside during his Borussia Dortmund days.

I like the idea of this signing. Ousmane Dembele makes complete sense in order to get the best out of Aubameyang (I know, right, there’s more?!)
See, Aubameyang thrives the most when there is creativity from wide positions, as this allows him to make the runs inside that infamously lead to goals. It’s one of the main reasons why he has been thriving alongside Nicolas Pepe and Kieran Tierney of late.
Dembele provides just that. While he can be a very direct player and is able to cut inside when required, his main trait is his creative ability. He just seems to put the ball on a plate to his attacker nine times out of ten, which given the aplomb of Aubameyang, would serve the Gunners incredibly well.
Arsenal seem to be in talks with Barcelona currently over a move for Philipps Coutinho. However, nothing is stopping them from enquring about a double swoop since they have been interesting in Dembele for the last few years and he doesn’t seem to be in Barcelona’s future plans.
Arsenal simply must listen to Aubameyang’s demands, because they cannot afford to lose his goals input.

Do you think Aubameyang will get his demand by playing alongside Dembele next season?
