Barcelona have officially wrapped up the signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on a free transfer, after the striker cancelled his Arsenal contract on deadline day.
It is understood that the move will be formally announced on social media on Tuesday morning, with Aubameyang having penned an 18-month deal.
Indeed, Barcelona are expected to unveil him at 9.30am on Tuesday.
Aubameyang touched down in Spain on Monday morning, although confusion initially broke out with no agreement reached between both clubs.
The ace has family based in the region, but landed to the surprise of all parties.
However, his arrival left him well-placed to have his medical later in the day.
The departure brings an end to his career at the Emirates, four years ago to the day since he arrived from Borussia Dortmund.
Aubameyang Arsenal’s £350,000-per-week contract was due to expire next summer, with the remaining time worth around £27million.
Arsenal were willing to let their former captain go on a free due to the saving they would make in wages.
Having agreed a settlement as part of the deal, Arsenal anticipate they will save around £20m, it is understood.
