Last I heard, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is still receiving part of his salary from Arsenal.
Arrived this winter to compensate for the premature retirement of Sergio Agüero, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang made great financial efforts to allow Barça to include him in the list of players for La Liga and the Europa League. But in history, it is perhaps the Arsenal club that has been the most conciliatory to facilitate the transfer of the Gabonese. Asked about the operation by Sky SportsBritish journalist David Ornstein assures that the Gunners are still paying part of their former striker’s salary.
“According to some reports, Aubameyang left for Barcelona for free. But I know that’s not the case. According to information from The Times, Arsenal paid more than 8 million euros to facilitate his departure. I don’t know the exact figures, but Arsenal are paying him a deposit until the summer, just like they did with Özil. In this case, the Gunners share the salary with Aubameyang, and he takes a personal bonus. »
