‘Arsenal should make free agency vow to Aubameyang’ – Merson happy to let striker run down deal

The former Gunners star believes a prolific frontman should be kept on at Emirates Stadium regardless of whether he commits to fresh terms

Arsenal should be looking to retain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s services this summer regardless of whether or not he commits to a new contract, says Paul Merson.

Discussions regarding fresh terms at Emirates Stadium for the prolific frontman have so far come to nothing.

His current deal is due to come to an end once the 2020-21 campaign reaches its conclusion.

If no extension is agreed by that point, then Aubameyang will drop into the free agent pool.
