'I want him here' - Arteta not considering Arsenal without Aubameyang

Mikel Arteta says he is not thinking about the prospect of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leaving Arsenal during the January transfer window.

Aubameyang has been linked with Barcelona, Real Madrid and Inter after having hit 13 Premier League goals this season, despite the Gunners' poor run of form that led to Unai Emery's departure.

Responding to rumours about his future, the Arsenal striker this week told RMC: "For now, I'm here. I'm 100 per cent here."
