Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ignites Marseille, record in sight!
Recruited this summer to compensate for the departure of Alexis Sanchez, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has proven to be a real good pick for Olympique de Marseille. The Gabonese striker has exploded since the arrival of Jean-Louis Gasset, panicking the counters.
10 days before the end of Ligue 1 and 3 days before the round of 16 second leg of the Europa League against Villarreal, Aubameyang has an impressive record of 23 goals in 37 appearances for Marseille.
Aubam among the legends
Rare performances in the 21st century. Indeed, few attackers have demonstrated such a level of realism in one season in the OM jersey since the start of the 2000s.
Only Mamadou Niang (2007-2008), André-Pierre Gignac (2014-2015) and Michy Batshuayi (2015-2016) have matched his total of 23 goals. Florian Thauvin, 2018 world champion, stopped at 26 goals in 2017-2018.
Drogba threatened?
the record remains the property of the untouchable Didier Drogba, author of 32 goals in 2003-2004.
Will PEA manage to dethrone “King” Drogba and permanently enter OM into the legend? Response in the coming weeks.
