Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang posted a cryptic tweet suggesting he is close to signing a new contract with the club. Aubameyang is out of contract with Arsenal at the end of next season and reports imply that he is approaching the pen on paper in an extension. However, the attacker has remained silent on this matter so far.
On Sunday afternoon, Aubameyang tweeted on his Twitter account: “…. (hourglass emoji)”.
His tweet provoked a quick reaction from Arsenal enthusiasts on the social network.
One of them replied, “Brother, don’t play like this with our hearts.”
Another wrote: “DES LARMES IN MY EYES”.

Aubameyang scored a brace in the semi-final win over Manchester City and followed with two more goals in the final against Chelsea.
If he introduces a new contract, it would be a big condiment for head coach Mikel Arteta, who will probably be limited in what he can spend on new signings this summer.

Last month, Arteta admitted that he was confident that Aubameyang would increase his tenure in the Emirates.
“I don’t know, setting a date now is very difficult,” said the spanish former midfielder.
“I like conversations to unfold, I like what I hear. I’m sure for either party, the faster we can do it, the better for everyone.
“I am convinced that it will make your stay bigger. He’s happy. I think he likes his football. He’s based in the country and his circle of relatives is fine.”
“I think he can feel, and we said, how much we love him, how much we value him. I think the bond he has with the enthusiasts is unique. I think that’s the best position for him.
“Everything I have of him and the other people around him is the same. So I don’t have any argument for saying anything different.
