Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has revealed his second favorite kit number: How Mkhitaryan is linked with this story?

Arsenal star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has revealed he wanted to take #7 shirt when moving to North London from Borussia Dortmund back in 2018. Gabon international has become the most expensive signing in the history of Arsenal and he immediately became a key player for Arsene Wenger and then for Unai Emery. Aubameyang scored stunning 22 goals to share Premier League Golden Boot with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane from Liverpool. "He (Thierry Henry, who also used #14) was always an example for strikers and because I am also fast and score goals, I always looked up to him. " Aubameyang told Football London "He’s the reason why I took the No 14 shirt. "To be honest, when I arrived I actually wanted No 7, but Micki had already taken it. So I thought, ‘Why not follow in the footsteps of a legend? "I’m just really proud to wear the 14 shirt and I hope to honour it." he added. Source - Football London
