Report: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang travelling to London

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is reportedly due to arrive in London on Tuesday afternoon to finalise a big-money move from Borussia Dortmund to Arsenal.

A £60m deal in principle is understood to have been agreed between the two clubs, paving the way for the Gabon international to finalise the formalities.

According to Sky Sports News, the transfer is another step closer to completion as the 28-year-old left Dortmund Airport earlier today on a private jet that is heading for the English capital.

Aubameyang will become the Gunners' club-record signing if all goes to plan, but the same report suggests that BVB are still on the lookout for a replacement before giving it the green light.

After admitting defeat in their attempt to lure Olivier Giroud to the Westfalenstadion, Dortmund have since turned to Michy Batshuayi and Anthony Modeste to potentially lead their line.
