Emmanuel Frimpong wants Arsenal to sell wayward star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Ex-Arsenal midfielder, Emmanuel Frimpong has called on his former employers to sell Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The Gabon centre forward has been stripped of the captaincy after a disciplinary problem over the weekend, when he missed his team’s Premier League win over Southampton.
Aubameyang, who was one day late from an authorized trip to France, should be moved on in January or the summer according to Frimpong.
The 29-year-old told Freebets.com: “I feel like in any profession there must be a professional attitude.
“And we all know Aubameyang has had one or two problems with coming late so I feel it was the right call.
“He’s the captain and there has to be an example so the younger players in the squad can follow.”
He added: “I think it would be good for Arsenal to cash in. Look at his age, he’s getting older, and we need a new striker that we can have for the next five years.
“He’s a great player but this is the best time to cash in. It will be difficult though, as he’s on very good wages. It’s not going to be easy to get him out.”
He finished: “I would like [Kieran] Tierney to be the captain.
“I also really like Ben White. I think Ben White can become a future captain for Arsenal.
“Most likely it’s going to be [Granit] Xhaka again which I’m not sure about as we’ve been there, done that. We need someone fresh. I would personally give it to Tierney for now.”
