Late: After being stripped of the captain's armband, Aubameyang's future at Arsenal is in doubt

According to the London Evening Standard, after being stripped of the captain's armband for violating regulations, Aubameyang's future at Arsenal is also in doubt.

Aubameyang was stripped of his position as Arsenal captain for a breach of discipline last week and tomorrow's match against West Ham will not be taken into account. Last week's violation was already the second time Aubameyang had been penalized by Arteta, the last time in March of this year, when Aubameyang was late for a team meeting.

Aubameyang has been penalized for violating the rules and he now has doubts about Arsenal's future. Aubameyang's contract with Arsenal has 18 months to go until the player's weekly salary is around £250,000.

In a statement today, Arsenal said: "Following last week's irregularities, Aubameyang will no longer be the captain of the squad and will not be considered for Wednesday's match against West Ham. We want all players, especially team captains, to act in accordance with the rules and standards that have been established and mutually agreed upon. The team is now completely focused on tomorrow's game. ”

After Saturday's win over Southampton, manager Arteta was repeatedly asked about Aubameyang's violation, but Arteta declined to respond to the relevant topic. Before Aubameyang, Xhaka had been stripped of the captain's armband for misconduct. Now it looks likely that one of Ramsdale, Tierney and Ode High School could succeed Aubameyang as the gunners' new captain.
