With a broad grin, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang held the jersey of Olympique Marseille in his hands after a year in Saudi Arabia. “He runs, he meets, he smiles,” wrote the traditional southern French club in his message.

Zaragoza’s contract with the Munich team runs until June 30, 2029. For the Spanish national team, he has played three international matches (one goal)
