Official: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang signs for Deportivo

The adventure of Aubameyang with Marseille has officially come to an end. The Gabonese striker leaves France to join Deportivo La Coruña, newly promoted to La Liga.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has signed a two-year contract until June 2028 with the Spanish top-flight newcomers. According to Foot Mercato, the deal was concluded for €1.5 million, the exact amount of the release clause in his contract with Marseille. As a result, Marseille will receive €1.5 million.

"Deportivo welcomes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The striker arrives from Olympique de Marseille after a brilliant season: 30 matches, 10 goals, and 6 assists in Ligue 1. With his arrival, we add a world-class player with tremendous experience and leadership to strengthen our sporting project," stated the Galician club.

This is not Aubameyang’s first experience in Spain. The 37-year-old Gabonese forward previously wore the Barcelona shirt during the 2021-2022 season, leaving a strong impression. Deportivo is counting on his finishing prowess, experience, and attacking leadership for the next two seasons.
