Aubameyang flew to Barcelona before the transfer was finalised, and Arsenal were surprised

According to Sky Sports, Arsenal were surprised by Aubameyang's early flight to Barcelona.

Arsenal and FC Barcelona are still in the final negotiations, but Aubameyang himself has flown to Barcelona to prepare for a medical examination. The two clubs are still in communication about the financial aspects of the transfer, discussing what percentage of the salary Barca will pay the Gabonese striker.

Aubameyang himself prefers to stay in Europe and is already willing to make sacrifices to join Barca with a pay cut.
