Aubameyang likely to leave Barca in 2023 (reliability: 5 stars)

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has signed a contract with Barcelona until 2025, but it will be very difficult for him to continue beyond 2023, the reputable Toni Juanmarti reports.

In 2023, Barca have the option to terminate his contract by simply paying him his full salary for the remaining two seasons.

Spreading Aubameyang's salary over several years will have less of an impact on the club's wage bill.

The 32-year-old arrives from Arsenal on a free contract. He has already trained twice with the squad and is expected to make his debut against Atletico Madrid on the weekend.
