Arsenal close in on Dortmund ace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as new head of recruitment insists they are not getting badboy

ARSENAL have been encouraged to sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang by the club's new head of recruitment, who has assured them he is not a disruptive influence.

Sven Mislintat, who left Dortmund at the end of last season, is ready to use his sway with the player to get him to the Emirates - after the Gabon international reportedly handed in a transfer request.

Aubameyang has had his fair share of disciplinary issues and was dropped from the Dortmund squad for disciplinary reasons over the weekend, despite scoring 21 goals in 23 games.

It is his third disciplinary sanction of the season.

And then he uploaded a video chat with former Manchester City youngster Jadon Sancho who joined Dortmund last summer.

He asks the English teenager: "Can you bring me to London one day?"

Wenger also faces the prospect of replacing Alexis Sanchez, who looks destined to head either to Manchester United or Chelsea, who seem ready to pay his high wage demands.

And German Mislintat has been holding several meetings with Wenger and Arsenal's raft of scouts as he bids to stamp his influence on the club, after being appointed in June.
