AC Milan want Aubameyang in January transfer but would have to pay him DOUBLE top-earner Ibrahimovic

0 5

AC MILAN are interested in signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Arsenal but a deal would be costly, reports claim.

The former Gunners skipper is likely to depart North London before the end of the month after being exiled by boss Mikel Arteta.

His destination is not yet known, although he would like to stay in Europe after turning down Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia.

According to Football Italia, Milan would like to bring Aubameyang back to the San Siro.

The Gabon ace was on the Italian giants’ books between 2007 and 2011 but never made a senior appearance.

With Olivier Giroud and Zlatan Ibrahimovic having both struggled with injuries this term, the Rossoneri are interested in bolstering their forward line.

Aubameyang, 32, would fit the bill – but his salary will provide a stumbling block.

Ibrahimovic, 40, is currently understood to be Milan’s top earner on around £120,000-a-week.

It’s claimed that Auba would need at least double that in order to leave the final 18 months of his lucrative Arsenal contract, worth £350,000-a-week including bonuses, behind.

The striker was tied down to a new three-year contract after captaining the Gunners to FA Cup success in 2020.

But his deal is now prohibiting the club in the market.

Aubameyang last played for Arsenal on December 6 in their 2-1 defeat by Everton.

He was subsequently stripped of the captaincy by Arteta, before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

Aubameyang scored in a 1-1 friendly draw against Mauritania, before subsequently testing positive for Covid-19 and missing Afcon as a result.
