Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, arguably the most in-demand striker in the world right now, has given the latest hint that he could spurn the advances of both Manchester City and Real Madrid bystaying with current club Borussia Dortmund.
The 27-year-old has been a long term target of both clubs, with the Citizens attempting to approach the Bundesliga side last summer but to no avail. Real Madrid are another side that are keeping closetabs on the Gabon striker.

Aubameyang, who has 13 goals in just 11 league games for BVB so far this season, was reported bythe Sunas saying, "The fans of BVB are really incredible, it's hard to describe what you feel when you play in front of them.
"The atmosphere they create, not just with the ˜Yellow Wall', with the 25,000 fans present in each game, [but] for the whole 90 minutes, regardless of the result of the opponent."
This latest comment may suggest that the former AC Milan and Saint-Etienne man even extend his current deal at the Signal Iduna Park, which at the moment is set to run out in 2020.
What's clear is that only a lucrative deal, potentially a record breaking one, would be needed to tempt Aubameyang away from his beloved club.
