New Barcelona signing, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has said that leaving Arsenal without a real goodbye hurts.
Aubameyang said this while thanking Arsenal fans for their support after leaving the club by mutual consent.
The striker said he was ‘sad’ he was unable to contribute after being banished from the Arsenal squad.
Writing on Instagram on Tuesday night, Aubameyang said: “To the Arsenal fans, thank you for making London home for myself and my family for the past four years.
“We went through ups and downs together and your support meant everything to me.
“Having the chance to win trophies and the honour of being the captain of this club is something I will forever keep in my heart.
“I have always been 100% focused and committed on doing everything I can for this club which is why leaving without a real goodbye hurts – but that is football.
“I’m sad I did not get the chance to help my teammates in the last few weeks, but I have nothing but respect for this club and truly wish all my guys and the fans all the best and many successful years in the future! Love, Auba.”
