He hasn’t played in it yet though, isn’t that the determining factor?

No.

Yeah I always understood it was if the player had played in it. Dortmund haven't even had a game in it yet.

Doesn't matter.

The rule is that you can register maximum one player who has played for another team in a UEFA tournament this season, but that one player's previous club cannot be in the same competition as the new club.

Quincy's right, Aubameyang is ineligible.

Thanks for clarifying the rule.

Fix? Sounds so dodgy.

[Ruhr Nachrichten] Anthony Modeste, Olivier Giroud, and Michy Batshuayi on Dortmund's radar to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Aubameyang agreed personal terms with Arsenal but no bid has been received.

The Ruhr Nachrichten guy is apparently very reliable when it comes to stuff from Germany and Dortmund.

Also:

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been given permission to miss Friday’s Bundesliga match with Hertha Berlin. [BILD]

Not traveling with the team to Berlin for the game.

We might actually get him.

Aubameyang and one of Malcom/Mkhitaryan is way way better then what I expected(I expected to sell Sanchez and get nothing...so).

No bid has been received? Did we just forget we need to buy him first?

Expect we'll be quibbling over the price at 11.55pm on deadline day and end up missing out over 2 million. "We have Welbeck, Giroud is coming back so will be like a new signing and of course we don't kill Nketiah who is coming through. We look always for internal solutions."

I always wonder about that - I imagine the club and) Dortmund are in discussion which why we have permission to talk to the player. But the process hasn't progressed far enough for a final bid to be submitted. I doubt clubs submit bids until they think it has a good chance of being accepted

Michael Zorc (Dortmund director): "We find it disrespectful to speak about players of other clubs. There is no contact with Arsenal. We assume Arsène Wenger has enough to take care of with his own players."

Wenger literally said he doesn't want to talk about Aubameyang Such a weird comment by Zorc

He also said We'll announce it when it's done too.

No he didn't.

Didn't travel with the matchday squad

Dimarzio has tweeted all personal terms agreed, now just the fee to dortmund left. This is where we usually stick the landing right?

no idea who this guy is

What kind of crackpot ITK is this? Fat chance that Aubameyang comes here on a €60 million transfer and gets the same wages as Iwobi.

I believe figures being quoted are net

Edit - wait, 10m divided across 3 years? This bloke is confused i think

Di Marzio is saying 10m per season

Wenger promised him "world class reinforcements in the summer".

Imagine his surprise when he finds out Wenger meant signing Jonny Evans and Wilfried Zaha by that.

That's ₁₇₀,000 pounds a week, Klaus. I doubt Iwobi is on that.

£10m over 3 years makes no sense at all. Has to be per season.

So what, we buy this guy and we will start scoring goals and creating loads of chances every game? If our style of play doesn’t change its going to be a pretty wasted effort

Aubameyang is going to score for fun with Özil feeding him.

Put Auba and Laca ahead of him and he'll have a field day. THB Mhkitarian could too.

Arsenal will be fun to play with on FIFA again!

No way did Auba go from wanting to go to China to accepting 70k a week. 170k is fair, I think.

A sugar rush signing

Aubameyang is going to score for fun with Ozil and Mkhitaryan feeding him. I'm hoping that playing with both men will give the Armenian a lift

If he’s on 70k a week then he has the worst agent in the world. The guy must have his wires crossed.

€3.3 million per season is _70K per week, Claude.

Do you think they meant 10m euros over the full 3 and a half years, or they meant 10 million Euros a season. I'm just going to assume the latter, which is how I got to my 170,000 pounds a week ballpark

Yes, but he specifically tweeted to clarify that he meant 10 million over 3 years, with 3 million annually:

Which makes no sense obviously.

Is Gary the main source? Other tweets I am seeing are saying 10m Euro a year. Cos it's also 3 1/2 years, not 3 years. I think he's correcting already correct information and needs to go to bed.

Everything about that tweet screams bullshit to me.

Yo. You’ve been speaking my language recently. Just don’t buy the hype

Not sure why a world class striker in his prime in Aubameyang would want to join this mess. Mislintat must have done one hell of a persuasion job.
