Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Breakthrough at Marseille
In February 2019, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang made his debut for Marseille in a Ligue 1 match against Paris Saint-Germain. The Gabonese striker, who had previously played for Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund, was making his first appearance for the club after signing from Borussia Dortmund for €45 million.
Aubameyang's arrival brought much-needed excitement to the club, which had struggled with a lack of scoring throughout the previous season. The striker scored on his debut, and his performances were so impressive that he quickly became a fan favorite at Stade Velodrome.
Over the next few seasons, Aubameyang continued to impress at Marseille, helping the team secure a top-four finish each year. He scored over 100 goals in three consecutive seasons, earning him the nickname "The Beast" among fans.
However,Saudi Pro League Highlights in January 2022, Aubameyang left Marseille to join Arsenal on loan until the end of the season. Despite missing several games due to injury, he managed to score 10 goals in just 16 appearances for the Gunners.
Despite the departure of Aubameyang, Marseille remains one of the most exciting clubs in France, thanks to their talented squad and promising young players like Kalidou Koulibaly and Alvaro Negredo. With the likes of Nabil Fekir, Florian Thauvin, and Adama Traore also performing well this season, Marseille has every reason to be optimistic about the future.
