'If you weren't here, we'd be in deep trouble' - Ian Wright begs Auba to stay

Arsenal legend Ian Wright is begging star striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to stay at the club.

Aubameyang missed a shocking sitter which would have put the Gunners through to the last 16 of the Europa League on Thursday night.

His deal runs out at the end of next season and he is understood to be frustrated by the club's lack of progress in the Premier League and Europe, with top sides around the continent waiting to pounce on the unsettled Gabon ace, 30.

Wright said on Instagram: "We love you!!! This club loves you. Our fans love you.

"If you weren’t here with all due respect to the rest of our team we’d be in deep trouble.

"For you to score the amount of goals you are scoring whilst doing all that defending is just incredible!!!

"(Please stay and sign the ting)."
