The Gabon striker has agreed on terms with FC Barcelona after terminating his contract by mutual consent with Arsenal and has already passed the traditional medical and fitness tests at Barcelona Hospital and in the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper.
According to Barcelona, Aubameyang will sign a contract until June 2025, with an option to agree on departure on Jun 30, 2023. The Catalan club have set his release clause at Sh12.8 billion.
Aubameyang joined Arsenal from German club Borussia Dortmund in 2018 and was former manager Arsene Wenger's last signing. He immediately became a fan favorite and went on to score 92 goals in 163 games for them.
The striker had not played for the north London club since December after manager Mikel Arteta stripped him of the captaincy due to a disciplinary breach.
Aubameyang was also sent home early from the Africa Cup of Nations after the Gabonese Football Federation said cardiac lesions were found in tests conducted in Cameroon following a positive COVID-19 test.
