According to reports, Arsenal had two bids for the Gabon striker who has played 56 times for Gabon, scoring 23 goals but rejected by Dortmund before agreeing a fee that eclipses the £46.5m July purchase of Alexandre Lacazette. But Dortmund would only sell after finding a replacement, with Chelsea forward Michy Batshuayi to join on loan.
Aubameyang who scored 141 goals in 213 games for Dortmund since 2013, including 21 in 24 matches this season, was suspended by the German club for their match against Wolfsburg on the 14th of January for missing a team meeting and also left out of the squad for their next game game at Hertha Berlin, because club officials felt he was not focused enough, but he played 90 minutes in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Freiburg.
