Chelsea striker Aubameyang: This is ex-Arsenal teammate my biggest supporter

Chelsea forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has revealed that ex-Arsenal team-mate Alexandre Lacazette is the man who had the most impact on him as a player.

The 33-year-old has been involved with top players throughout his career, playing for AC Milan, Arsenal, Borussia Dortmund, Barcelona, and now the Blues.

However, Aubameyang was arguably at his peak at Arsenal, scoring 92 goals in all competitions and helping them win the FA Cup alongside Lacazette.

Asked about someone who impacted his career a lot, told BBC Sport: "If I have to choose one I think it's Lacazette.

“For sure, because in bad times he helped me a lot."

The two face off in the Premier League on Sunday in the early kick off, with Arsenal traveling to Chelsea.
