But if Aubameyang has a CV as long as his arm, with stints at AC Milan, Borussia Dortmund, Arsenal, Chelsea and even Barcelona, the current Olympique de Marseille striker also had to face delicate periods on a personal level.
“It was depression”
In an interview with Colinterview, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang confided that he had depression in 2022, after his time at Arsenal “I’m sure (I was depressed). There are attitudes that are seriously different from your daily life. For example, I started drinking a lot. It was a heavy, difficult passage. It started a little before I was fired from Arsenal. So yes, it was depression, I think it was linked to my parents. It affects a man, it’s normal”
Asked about his choice to come to Marseille, “Aubame” stressed that the very unique environment of the Marseille city had been decisive in his decision. “I needed some pep, to rediscover the joy of winning a home match. It’s a mess and in Marseille, I couldn’t have had a better time. It’s the extreme, but that’s what we like. »
