It's done! Aubameyang is an Olympian, behind the scenes of an exciting transfer

Here we go, friends, it's done! The Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang case is closed. As I announced to you this night, the verbal agreement has been given for a contract until June 2027. The great Fabrizio Romano has dropped his famous 'Here We Go', the deal is sealed!

"Money, it's not for me! Money, it's paper, it's fictional. The most important thing is our passion on the field!" 
- Seb -H- Foot

And what a beautiful proof of passion from Aubameyang! The player made real financial sacrifices to join us. He said 'next' to the dazzling offers from Saudi Arabia to choose the sports project, to play the Champions League with us, in Marseille. He's a player who is still hungry, who wants to bounce back in Europe after a complicated season, and he chose OM to do it. That works for me!

An experienced leader to guide our youngsters

The arrival of a player of this caliber isn't just about goals. It's experience, a leader for our attacking line. He will be able to guide our young talents, whether it's Gouiri, Greenwood, or the newcomer Paixão we'll talk about. Having a forward of this level, who has known the very high level everywhere he has been, is all beneficial for us.

We care little about the deal numbers in the end. As long as we have quality players who give their all on the pitch, that's what drives us. And with Auba, we know we have a player who can make a difference at any moment. Now, it will be necessary to confirm all this on the field, but the excitement is definitely there!
