Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang drops Arsenal contract hint on Instagram

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's future at Arsenal remains uncertain as long as his new contract is unsigned, but the striker may have hinted he is ready to commit his future to the club.

The 31-year-old has entered the final year of his contract at the Emirates Stadium as the Gunners seek to tie down their top scorer to a new deal, but there is a possibility of a summer departure.

Aubameyang has so far stalled over putting pen to paper with interest from Barcelona complicating the matter and Arsenal's hopes of European qualification hanging in the balance.

It has been widely reported Aubameyang wants a three-year deal worth £250,000-a-week, which would make him the second-highest earner at the club behind Mesut Ozil.

And the Gabonese forward, who recently became the fastest player to reach the 50-goal mark in the Premier League for the north London outfit, has teased fans by suggesting he could extend his stay at the Emirates Stadium.

Aubameyang joined his half-brother, Willy, for an Instagram live Q&A session with thousands of fans joining the social media discussion.

One fan wrote in the comment section telling Aubameyang to "blink" if he had any intention of staying with Arsenal and it prompted an interesting response.

Seconds later, Aubameyang could be seen blinking profusely while laughing on camera, dropping a big hint that he could be sticking around for the final years of his career.
