Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is finally a Barcelona player - two years after new boss Xavi warned them against the transfer.
The 32-year-old penned his deal at the Nou Camp only 48 hours after Arsenal cancelled his contract to enable him to sign on a free transfer.
Barcelona have been linked with Aubameyang several times over recent years.
And when speculation mounted over a move back in 2020, legendary midfielder and now current Barca boss told the LaLiga giants not to buy him.
Explaining why the Gabonese international would not be a good fit in Catalonia, he said: “(Sadio) Mane and Aubemayang can kill you in open space.
“But Barcelona need players who know how to move in small spaces.
“I am thinking about a player who would adapt to Barcelona and it’s not easy to find one.
“Samuel Eto’o was perfect as is Luis Suarez right now.”
