It is baffling as to why no club has signed Aubameyang from Borussia Dortmund despite the player often stating that he would like to play elsewhere. As things stand, he is still a Dortmund player and they will be more than happy to keep the Gabonese striker.

The 28-year-old started his senior career at Milan, but only found his feet after his move to Saint-Etienne in 2011. His impressive performances for the Ligue 1 club, which also helped them win the Coupe de la Ligue in 2013, earned him a move to Borussia Dortmund.

Since joining Dortmund in 2013, his career has gone from heights to heights.

He has scored 126 goals in 194 games, won the DFB-Pokal in 2017 and two DFL-Supercups, named African footballer of the year in 2015, named Bundesliga Player of the Year for 2015-16 and finally won the Bundesliga top scorer award in 2016/17 beating his former teammate, Robert Lewandowski.

There is no doubt that the Gabonese striker is the best African player in the world right now.
