Mikel Arteta answers whether Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will play for Arsenal again

Mikel Arteta has revealed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is currently in London after contracting Covid. The Gabon international had to return to England for further assessment after being diagnosed with apparent "heart lesions" due to the coronavirus. “He’s in London - he contracted Covid so he’s back here,” Arteta said about the Gunners attacker. The Spanish boss was also asked about Aubameyang's future at the club and whether he will play the forward again. “We need to make sure the player's health is in the best possible condition and then we'll see what happens,” the manager replied.
