Arsenal
have made a £44.7 million bid for Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick
Aubameyang, according to Spanish reports.
The
Gunners have been targeting Aubameyang for the past several months and are now
likely to seal his deal as the reports claimed earlier today that a big bid has
been made.

The
26-year-old is quoted by the same reporter Kike Marin who broke the news of
Alexis Sanchez move to Arsenal from Barcelona few years ago.
The
Gunners are in need of attackers and with the signing of him they can surely
increase their chances of winning the Premier League title after a long time.
The English giants have only Olivier Giroud fit for the striking role.
Danny Welbeck is still out through injury.
However, teammate
Matthias Ginter believes that he should stay.
Aubameyang
has netted 68 goals in 119 appearances for the German side since his move from Saint-Étienne
in 2013.
Meanwhile,
Liverpool have also targeted him as the new boss Jurgen Klopp has already
worked with him and is keen to re-sign him at Anfield.
