The Gabonese forward made his Arsenal teammates laugh after his 2–1 win over Chelsea this month by dropping the FA Cup trophy on the turf.
Unable to contain his laughter, Aubameyang quipped: “Very important, the seat belt. Very important. Then I can’t drop it!”
Ainsley Maitland-Niles has hinted he is likely to leave Arsenal this summer.
The midfielder has been linked with a £20million move to both Wolves and Tottenham.
AUBA THE MOON
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta believes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is very close to signing a new contract.
“He responded very well to that kind of pressure. He was in the FA Cup final and the same today.
GUESSING GAME
Arsenal are prepared to offer him a three-year deal worth £250,000-a-week to tempt him to stay at the Emirates.
TROPHY HUNTERS
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is lifting another trophy at Wembley.
A great start to 2020-21 for Mikel Arteta’s side.

The Gunners won the Community Shield for Liverpool’s aftermath.
DAN THE FAN
Dani Ceballos applauded his former company Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on Twitter.
Auba gave the Gunners a 1-0 lead over Liverpool in the Community Shield with an astonishing blow, much to the delight of the Spanish midfielder.
Ceballos is back at Real Madrid after the end of his loan era at the end of last season, but reports have connected him with a return to the Emirates.
And the 24-year-old tweeted “VAMOS” to a clip of the Gabonese forward’s wonder.
ARSENAL HALF-TIME 1-0 LIVERPOOL
The Gunners lead the Community Shield 1-0 in halftime.
Captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a goal at Wembley.
Gabon’s leader will actually have to be registered through Mikel Arteta.
Liverpool scored a goal from Virgil van Dijk in chalk, but Jurgen Klopp will have more troops after the curtain breaks.

Come on, MAIT!
Newcastle sought to point to Ainsley Maitland-Niles, but was discouraged by a value of 25 million pounds.
According to the Telegraph, Steve Bruce’s team is also Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster.
Bruce justifies spending 25 million pounds to point to Maitland-Niles when his summer budget is between 30 and 35 million pounds.
The Gunners star made 20 Premier League appearances in the season.
LAUR AND ORDER
Arsenal legend Lauren will cheer up the Gunners this afternoon.
Mikel Arteta will face Liverpool, the Premier League champion, with a kick-off at 16:0.

ON YOUR TUESDAYS …
Gabriel Martinelli ‘walks again’ as he aims to regain full form for Arsenal.
The teenage prodigy was last noticed as an unused replacement in the 2–1 loss at Brighton in June, before a knee injury prematurely ended his first season with the Gunners.
Although it is about to be missing until 2021, the Brazilian is still subsidized through enthusiasts to make an impact.
And it turns out that the same 19-year-old has a transparent concept of where he’s most productive to do it: he’ll gladly sacrifice himself for the team.
GUNNER’S STAY
Arsenal’s target, Dominik Szoboszlai, has to stay at RB Leipzig because he needs to “play another season in the Champions League”.
He told the club’s official website: “I spoke to my circle of relatives and my agent.
“I need to play the Champions League season for Salzburg.”
TOO SOON
Newcastle leads the race to sign Rob Holding on loan to David Ornstein.
The two clubs are expected to reach a deal following the Community Shield crash.
Holding is expected to enroll in Steve Bruce’s team on a season loan, but is unlikely to have the option of a permanent deal.
The defender has played 39 Premier League games with the Gunners since arriving from Bolton four years ago.
I’ll do it sometime.
Mikel Arteta has been inspired by Willian’s winning mentality since arriving at Arsenal from Chelsea.
Before the clash against Liverpool, the Gunners manager said: “I am positive players and eager to win for our club.
“That’s the feeling I felt from the first day I met Willian.
“He is not satisfied with what he has done in his career, which is a lot, and will bring special qualities to our team.
GUNNER WINS IT?
This is how the start of the season is for Arsenal…

STAT ATTACK
Here are some stats before the Community Shield clash between Arsenal and Liverpool.
LABIA
Paul Merson thinks it will be a “big statement” from Arsenal if they point to Gabriel Magalhaes.
The central part is about to seal a 27 million-pound transfer from Lille to north London.
Merson told Starsport: “If Arsenal makes a signal to Gabriel Magalhaes, I think it’s big because of all the other clubs that looked for him.
“If Arsenal controlled to put it in without having to offer the Champions League, I think it’s huge.
“I like what Mikel Arteta does. But there are many around them who are also getting better.
WEMBLEY XI
After much speculation, it is now transparent that Mikel Arteta will use a back-three for the 2020-21 season.
After several more looks last season, the Spanish coach would possibly have selected despite all his most productive training.
After cautiously executing a 3-4-3 for the friendly against MK Dons, it is now certain that Arsenal will line up this way for the Community Shield against Liverpool.
With Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi about to be cancelled and Dani Ceballos’ transfer agreement will become permanent, Arteta’s are limited.
Here’s how Gunners can start …
ART TIME
Mikel Arteta fears the season will be on the edge of Covid-19.
Five English stars have tried it, as well as a number of Premier League aces.
On Thursday, Paul Pogba and Tanguy Ndombele returned effects for Covid-19.
Arsenal chief Arteta contracted the virus in March.
When asked if the new season was already under threat, he said, “Yes, we’re going to have a lot more cases.
“There are uncertainties we control.”
PARTY TIME
It is possible that Arsenal would have won a good time in his quest for Thomas Partey of Atletico Madrid.
The Gunners have been watching midfield for a long time, but are still not in a position to comply with their forty-five million pounds upfront release clause.
However, Spanish journalist David Vinuesa Malbac says the Atleti is “economically drowned”, while adding that the forty-five million pound clause in its entirety is not yet easy.
Atletico is also about to sign a substitute for Espanyol Marc Roca.
The midfielder, who had been in the past related to the Gunners, is expected to sign up for an Array contract of 13 million pounds.
ARSENAL MORNING FANS
Thomas Partey remakes one of the main goals of Arsenal’s move this summer, but a new doubt has been on the move through the star’s spokesman.
Speaking about Football 360, Samuel Zigah said: “You can only leave Atletico Madrid when you need it.”
Meanwhile, Matteo Guendouzi will leave Arsenal this summer, but chief Mikel Arteta has given him the chance to stay if he wants.
Arteta said: “What you did two weeks ago or two years ago doesn’t matter. That’s what you can contribute to the team now.”
Meanwhile, Italian giants Juventus have asked Arsenal about the possibility of signing Hector Bellerin, and the Gunners are reportedly willing to sell.
According to Corriere Dello Sport, Arsenal told Juventus that Bellerin would be on sale for 27 million pounds.
And finally, Arsenal appears in a position to sell to goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez.
According to The Athletic, Arsenal has placed 20 million in the Argentine’s head.
Martínez is open to one as he aspires to be Argentina’s top scorer.
A MATTER OF TIME
Tottenham accepted a “in the region” payment of 15 million pounds from Wolves’ right-back Matt Doherty reportedly.
Wolves can now step up their quest for Arsenal star Ainsley Maitland-Niles to upgrade to Doherty.
According to Sky Sports, the Spurs will soon reach their ranks with the signing of Doherty, 28.
The 6-foot ace joined the East Midlands club from the Bohemians in the Irish side for 75,000 euros in 2010.
