The Gabon men's national team confirmed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been sent back to Arsenal following his recovery from COVID-19 after tests revealed heart lesions.
Aubameyang has not participated in Gabon's two African Cup of Nations matches after testing positive upon his arrival for the tournament in Cameroon, and is now set to undergo more tests back in London.
Although he tested negative on Thursday, the Arsenal forward reportedly was not allowed to play in Friday's game against Ghana after the medical staff found the lesions in his post-Covid medical examinations, according to The Guardian.
