The president of Gabon’s football association, Pierre Alain Mounguengui, believes Aubameyang should be playing for a biger side than Arsenal with bigger ambitions.

Former Borussia Dortmund man Aubameyang has been banging in goals for the Gunners ever since joining them in 2018, and he grabbed a share of the Golden Boot alongisde Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane with 22 goals last season.

Aubameyang has scored 17 goals this season despite Arsenal’s struggles, and Mounguengui believes a goal scorer of his calibre should be operating at the very top level.

With Aubameyang established as one of the best strikers in the world, and having been linked with big-money moves away from the Emirates, Gabon’s FEGAFOOT association president thinks he should try his luck elsewhere.

“I don’t want to say that Arsenal aren’t ambitious, but Arsenal don’t have ambitions as high as some other clubs as far as Europe is concerned,” Mounguengui told ESPN.

“So if Pierre could secure a contract with a more ambitious club, he’d definitely find his place there.

“On an individual level, we all consider him to be among the best players in the world, but the advice I give to him is to continue to work and to attract the attention of the biggest clubs and the most ambitious clubs.

“Football is a collective sport. Right now, he’s at Arsenal, and he’s won nothing here, so it’s a collective failing.”
