Arsenal have reportedly agreed a new deal with club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The 31-year-old's existing contract at the Emirates Stadium is due to expire next summer, and he has been strongly linked with a move away from the Gunners in recent months.


Aubameyang led Mikel Arteta's side to the FA Cup trophy during the 2019-20 campaign, though, and ended the season with 29 goals in 44 appearances in all competitions.

According to The Telegraph, Arsenal have now 'agreed terms' with Aubameyang over a new deal, meaning that an announcement could be imminent.
