Landing in Saudi Arabia almost six months ago, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang could be joined by another executive from the Gabon team.
Last July, the international striker Gabonese Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (77 caps, 31 goals) joined the lucrative Saudi championship and the richly promoted Al-Qadsiah for a two-season contract with a XXL annual salary of 10 million euros. Marseille Olympicwhere he was coming off a season full of goals (30 goals in 51 games), had collected a check for €9 million for a player who had just celebrated his 35th birthday a month earlier.
For now, the center forward remains in line with his prolific time at OM, notably with more than one goal every two matches (7 goals in 13 appearances). At the same time, his club is third in the Saudi Pro League behind Karim Benzema's Al-Ittihad and Yassine Bounou's Al-Hilal, but ahead of Sadio Mané and Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr (4th).
Lemina in Al Shabab's sights
This winter, another Panther could bring joy to another SPL resident. In fact, according to information from The TeamMario Lemina is tracked by Al Shabab, 6th in SPL and club of Moroccan striker Abderrazak Hamdallah. Looking for a midfielder, the Riyadh-based team has started negotiations with a view to transferring the 31-year-old defensive midfielder from Wolverhampton.
In all likelihood, the Wolves have no intention of objecting. The player reaches the end of his contract next June, and has also lost depth in the yellow and black locker room in recent days. Not only did he lose his captain's armband, but he has no longer been with the professional squad for three matches and the victory at Leicester (0-3) on December 22.
A departure therefore appears most appropriate to relaunch the former Juventini. Always according to The Teama posh club in Europe, whose name has not been leaked, has also positioned itself on his profile. Its future could change in the coming days.
