Reports have been circulating about Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s future in North London, with the striker reportedly ‘desperate’ to leave.

Worried about the future ambitions of the club, Aubameyang wants to move on in order to pursue major honours elsewhere.

Read Arsenal verdict

You have to respect the honesty from these Arsenal fans and it reflects the position that the club finds themselves in.

Supporters could easily name a handful of players, if not more that simply haven’t looked concerned by the plight that the Gunners have endured this season, Aubameyang being one of them.

Arteta has a rebuilding job on his hands and it may take some time to move players on. With so many promising youngsters coming through the ranks at Arsenal, supporters will be hoping they can take on more prominent roles within the first-team squad going forward.
