Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has not played for Arsenal since December 6 after being stripped of the captaincy; Ainsley Maitland-Niles close to finalising a loan move to Roma; Arsenal will consider offers for defenders Pablo Mari and Calum Chambers this January.
Arsenal will consider suitable offers for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, with a January exit not ruled out for the striker.
Aubameyang, who has joined up with Gabon ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations, has been sidelined since being stripped of the captaincy last month after a disciplinary issue. Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has not selected him in the squad for their last six games.
Since then, Arsenal have won five and lost one of those matches – Saturday’s contentious 2-1 defeat to champions Manchester City at the Emirates – scoring 20 goals in that time.
Aubameyang, who is Arsenal’s highest earner, has 18 months left on a contract that pays £350,000 per week.
He had some interest from Juventus but will not be joining them due to his commitments with Gabon at AFCON and their desire to keep Alvaro Morata, according to Sky in Italy.
Arsenal have money to spend on a new centre-forward this month, with Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah’s contracts expiring at the end of the season.
