‘Sell Ozil and use the money to pay Aubameyang’ – Pennant talks aim at ‘typical Arsenal’ in contract saga

The former Gunners winger is not surprised to see another star turn entering the final year of his deal, with history repeating itself in north London

Allowing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s contract to run down is “typical Arsenal”, says Jermaine Pennant, with the Gunners told they should look into selling Mesut Ozil and invest those funds in a new deal for their captain.

Prolific Gabonese frontman Aubameyang has entered the final 12 months of his current terms at Emirates Stadium.

He is yet to commit to an extension, despite offering no indication that he is looking elsewhere and regular claims of confidence from the likes of Mikel Arteta when it comes to an agreement being reached.
