Barcelona agree free-transfer signing of Arsenal striker Aubameyang

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will have a medical at Barcelona after the club agreed a free-transfer signing from Arsenal.

Barcelona feared the move was dead earlier on transfer deadline day even though Aubameyang had flown to Spain.

The 32-year-old Gabon striker has not played for the Gunners since a disciplinary breach in December.

He has scored 92 goals in 163 games since a £56m arrival from Borussia Dortmund in 2018.
