Arsenal have inadvertently revealed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has joined the club after they accidentally posting a video confirming his arrival on their own website.
In the age of social media, it’s not uncommon for top-flight clubs to spend a mini-fortune announcing new signings with extravagant videos.
But Arsenal were left humiliated on Tuesday night after they mistakenly uploaded — and hastily deleted — a clip on their website in which Arsene Wenger confirmed the £55m capture of Aubameyang.
In the short video an interviewer ask Wenger: ‘Aubameyang is an Arsenal player, you must be delighted to get the deal done?’
‘Yes, it’s good news,’ the Arsenal boss replied in the wake of their 3-1 defeat by Swansea.
‘We need people who can give us more offensive power. We aren’t efficient enough going forward.
‘I’m convinced he will bring us that. He has a big challenge in front of him, he wants to win the Premier League.’
