The calls from Arsenal fans impelling Unai Emery to make Aubameyang the Gunners captain are becoming a constant occurrence. Their clamour has been heightened by a report in which the teenager, Gabriel Martinelli revealed that it was Aubameyang who helped him settle in North London.
Martinelli who made his debut appearance against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday scored two goals in the 5-0 win.
The 18-year-old’s impressionable display attracted attention at the Emirates and has culminated into lots of of media interest in the young Brazilian.
He’s shown that he is a natural leader on the pitch over the past 12 months, so this latest off-field revelation regarding Martinelli will only further his case to lead the side.
Emery who has the intention of naming his ‘five captains’ soon, would, if Arsenal fans were to be given a free hand, have already named the striker as their skipper.
