Arsenal this season has been a bit of a comeback, with a whole bunch of young talent in the ball exploding and the club seems to be selling the captain again, and this time it is Arsenal who actively hope to sell the offending Aubameyang.
The latest report from Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth suggests Arsenal will consider an offer for Aubameyang and the club hopes to sell Aubameyang in the winter window.
Arsenal captain and top salary player Aubameyang was stripped of his captaincy by Arteta last month due to disciplinary problems and was suspended internally, since which Aubameyang has not been included in the team's squad, the Gabonese striker has missed six Arsenal matches, and the player has now gone with the Gabonese national team to play in the Africa Cup of Nations.
In Aubameyang's six games out, Arsenal have an impressive record of 5 wins and 1 loss, only 1-2 against Manchester City, which is still a penalty + red card, in these 6 games, Arsenal scored a staggering 20 goals, averaging more than 3 goals per game.
According to journalist Djamesh Sheth, if Arsenal receive a suitable offer for Aubameyang in the winter window, then the club will consider selling the Gabon striker, who has become lazy after a high-paying contract extension.
Aubameyang and Arsenal still have a one-and-a-half-year contract left, the weekly salary is as high as 350,000 pounds, at present Aubameyang wants to not cut salary, then joining Newcastle is his only option, and Newcastle urgently needs to strengthen the front line to complete relegation, the introduction of Aubameyang is also a win-win. Arsenal's revival requires reinforcing the front line, with Fiorentina's Vlahović being the ideal centre-forward in Arteta's tactics, and serbian centre-forwards to make up for Arsenal's lack of offensive height. Selling Aubameyang to free up salary space is enough to bring in Vlahović.
