Former Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is desperately prepared to leave the London club and head to Spanish side Barcelona, even if it means to play for free.

Multiple sources are also reporting that the Catalan giants are also interested in signing the embattled Gunner on loan until the end of the season.

Although there were earlier talks that such a deal could only happen if Ousmane Demebele completes his move away from Barcelona, but it seems there is room on the wage bill.

Aubameyang won’t be the only player to take a pay cut to move to Barca. New signings Ferran Torres and Adama Traore have both moved on reduced salaries, while Dani Alves is said to be earning the lowest salary permitted by La Liga.
