Arsenal legend Ian Wright visits Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s dad and begs him to get son to sign new contract
ARSENAL legend Ian Wright visited Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's dad after insisting that the Gunners need to secure the striker's future.
The 31-year-old's current deal expires at the end of the season, but Mikel Arteta has been desperate to extend his captain's stay at the Emirates.
SunSport has previously reported that Aubameyang has agreed a new contract worth at least £350,000 a week but he has yet to officially put pen to paper.
The Gabon star- who has scored 71 goals in 110 games for the club - was critical to Arsenal's recent FA Cup and Community Shield success.
And the forward underlined his importance to the North Londoners once again as he scored in the 3-0 away win over Fulham on Saturday.

And Arsenal fans loved the meet-up with one tweeting: "Big man Wrighty wasn’t kidding when he said he was bringing the contract."
Another said: "Thought Ian was joking when he said it lol… #AgentWright."
