Aubameyang Unstoppable Ahead of Champions League Clash
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is currently in electrifying form, and Borussia Dortmund is reaping the rewards. With goals against Stuttgart and Schalke, the Gabonese forward has firmly established himself as Dortmund’s most dangerous weapon early this season. As the team prepares to face Anderlecht in the Champions League this Wednesday, all eyes will be on him.
🗣️ Didier Ovono: “He’s Become More Mature”
Former teammate and Gabon national team goalkeeper Didier Ovono had high praise for Aubameyang:
“Is he that fast? You’ll see that on Wednesday evening. I know a few Anderlecht boys who will suffer with him. A few years ago, he gave David Luiz a hard time.”
Ovono emphasized the striker’s evolution:
“He’s full of confidence, more mature. Before, he only relied on his speed. But now, he has good ball control and is calm in front of goal.”
⚽ 7 Goals in 9 Matches: A Lethal Start
Aubameyang has scored 7 goals in his last 9 games, a clear sign of his growing efficiency in front of goal. With several key injuries plaguing the Dortmund squad, coach Jürgen Klopp will be depending heavily on the Gabonese striker to deliver once again.
🥇 “The Best African Player at the Moment”
According to Ovono, Aubameyang’s development puts him at the very top:
“He is the best African player at the moment.”
If he keeps up this pace, Aubameyang could not only lead Dortmund deep into the Champions League but also stake a serious claim for African Player of the Year honors.
