Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang addresses Arsenal exit but Barcelona move still not confirmed – what’s going on? The Warm-Up

WEDNESDAY’S BIG STORIES Don’t cry because it’s Auba… Ad/> Sooo. *Twiddles thumbs*. There isn’t exactly much to say.

We went through ups and downs together and your support meant everything to me. “Having the chance to win trophies and the honour of being the captain of this club is something I will forever keep in my heart.

“I have always been 100% focused and committed on doing everything I can for this club which is why leaving without a real goodbye hurts — but that is football. /> “I’m sad I did not get the chance to help my teammates in the last few weeks, but I have nothing but respect for this club and truly wish all my guys and the fans all the best and many successful years in the future! Love, Auba.” Now, well, now we wait for Barcelona. He was pictured training on Tuesday – if you squint in
