Aubameyang facts
How much do you know about Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang?

#3 Milan roots

The Milan officials at that time didn’t think that he had the adequate skill to play for the Rossoneri

This is a fact that might hurt Milan fans a little bit. Aubameyang was born in France, but when his father went to Italy and got a job as a scout for AC Milan, he was quickly transferred to San Siro. However, the Milan officials at that time didn’t think that he had the adequate skill to play for the Rossoneri, so they shipped him off to Saint-Etienne.

It was in France where he made his name and spring-boarded to success by joining Borussia Dortmund later on.

His brothers also played in the youth teams of Milan before being transferred out elsewhere. Just imagine if he was still at Milan. They would have certainly had someone who could do the thing that their current strikers find difficulty in doing: Scoring.
