The ex-Gunners star admits there is a very real threat that a striker yet to commit to a new contract in north London could be lured to Old Trafford
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is “what Manchester United are missing”, admits Paul Merson, with there a chance that Arsenal could have another Robin van Persie on their hands.
Back in 2012, the Gunners saw their most reliable and productive attacking weapon trade life in north London for that in the north west.
Van Persie left to go chasing titles with a United side that remained a force to be reckoned with at that stage under Sir Alex Ferguson.
