'Mr Watzke you're such a clown' - Arsenal star Aubameyang hits back at Dortmund CEO

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has labelled Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke a "clown' in response to his dig at the Arsenal star earlier this week.

Aubameyang spent five years at Westfalenstadion before securing a £60 million ($74m) switch to Emirates Stadium in 2018.

The 30-year-old has since emerged as one of the most prolific strikers in the Premier League, netting 39 goals in 56 appearances.
