Aubameyang fires:
Arteta? “Didn’t expect him to kill me like that”
Three years after his departure from Arsenal FC, the dispute with Mikel Arteta still doesn't seem to have been put to bed. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang once again fired from all cylinders against his former coach in an interview with The Athletic.
Background: In December 2021, Aubameyang was given a day off to visit his sick mother in her French hometown of Laval. However, after returning to the team too late, Arteta dropped him from the squad and the Gabonese left the Gunners for Barcelona a month later.
"He said I stabbed him in the back," Auba recalled, explaining his side of the story: "I expected him to help me, not to kill me like that. It was my mistake not to tell them that I was going to miss the flight because I was still busy with my mother's medical examinations."
"Would never apologize"
Arteta then sought a conversation with the striker and drew the consequences. "He started shouting that I was captain and that was unacceptable. If I'm late and it's my fault, I always apologize. But in this case, I would never apologize. For taking my mother from Laval to London? No. Either they understand or they don't. If not, they shouldn't have given me a day off," says the 35-year-old.
Aubameyang now earns his money at Al-Qadsiah in the Saudi Pro League, and a return to Arsenal seems almost impossible - at least under Arteta.
