Arsenal have officially announced that Aubameyang will no longer be the club's captain and he will not be included in wednesday's match against West Ham. According to British media outlet football.london, Ben White, Odegaard, Lacazette and Till are candidates for captaincy under the Gunners.
It is reported that Aubameyang was stripped of the captain's armband for violating discipline. According to reports, among the 4 captainial candidates above, Tierney is very vocal in the hearts of Arsenal fans. In addition, fans hope that Gabriel and Ramsdale will also be shortlisted.
Aubameyang became captain of the Gunners in 2019, when he said it was an honour for him to be captain: "Arsenal have had many great captains in history, such as Vieira and Adams. I am honored to follow in their footsteps and I will do my best on and off the field to maintain the glory of the captain. ”
"When I was young, I always wanted to be the captain of the youth team. One day I told my mom I did. The two of us laughed for a long time because we remembered the memories of my own buying an armband to wear on my arm. ”
"When I first started my career, I didn't really care if I was the captain or not. But now I feel good, as a captain there are a lot of responsibilities, but I think I can do the job. ”
"It's an honour that I've been captain of the Gabonese national team since 2015 and my father was captain when he was playing for the country. So it's a very special thing to take over his mantle, and I'm a great honour to be captain of both Gabon and Arsenal. ”
According to media analysis, it is unclear who Arsenal will appoint as the next captain, but manager Arteta has many options on this issue.
