Sport: On Deadline Day, Barcelona completed the signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Arsenal, who was available on a free transfer.

Barcelona has signed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on a free transfer from Arsenal.

Arsenal released the 32-year-old after he was stripped of his captaincy in December due to a disciplinary issue.

After December 6, the 32-year-old did not play for the club and was left out of their warm-weather training camp in Dubai.

Aubameyang, who scored 92 goals in 163 games for Arsenal, will leave the club in the remaining 18 months of a £350,000-per-week deal.

The former Arsenal captain's exit will save the Gunners around £15 million in salary after they signed him for £56 million from Borussia Dortmund in 2018. However, it leaves Mikel Arteta with only Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah as forward options for the rest of the season.
