Arsenal fans expected a lot when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang arrived at the Emirates under Arsène Wenger last season for a club-record of £56 million, and he hasn't disappointed. Scoring 22 goals and providing 5 assists during the 2018-19 campaign, the Gabonese international has also formed a lethal partnership with fellow striker Alexandre Lacazette.

Known for his electrifying speed and a strong right foot, the former Borussia Dortmund player has also been instrumental in taking Arsenal to the Europa League final. Unai Emery will certainly hope that the 29-year-old maintains his goal-scoring form in the coming seasons as Arsenal continue to strive to come out from being a top-6 club to a title contender.
