Spanish giant, Barcelona have completed the deadline day signing of out of favour Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The 32-year-old has not featured for the Gunners since December after a disciplinary breach saw him stripped of the club captaincy.
And the LaLiga giants have swooped in ahead of Juventus to secure the Gabon international’s services.
Aubameyang was expected to leave on loan but Barca have sealed a permanent deal after the hitman agreed to take a substantial pay cut from his £350,000-a-week Gunners deal.
Arsenal are set to save £25million in wages in a huge boost to their summer transfer plans.
Aubameyang, who has netted 68 goals in 128 Premier League appearances in North London, will hope to get back on the scoring trail for his new club after a frustrating period at the Emirates.
He joins Ferran Torres in Catalonia after the Manchester City star arrived earlier in the window as Xavi looks to restore the famous club to their former glory.
