The Gabonese star made a huge impression against Real Madrid

There are not many players who have spoken frankly about their future than the Gabonese striker. Aubameyang has always maintained that his future lies away from Dortmund with Real Madrid being a prime destination for the hotshot forward. A long time target of the Premier League teams, Aubameyang has also revealed that he has made a promise to his late grandfather that one day he will don a white Real shirt.

When he arrived at the Bernabeu amidst much fanfare, the striker was not overawed by the situation but held the game by the scruff of its neck and turned it in the second half. First, he scored a simple tap in with all the hard work being done by his teammates and then assisted Marco Reus after a typical enthralling Dortmund counter attack. Real Madrid supporters must be wishing that Aubameyang chooses to join them in the near future with the striker developing a knack of scoring against the biggest teams.
