Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who is the 2015 African player of the year has added fire to the spark on the speculations regarding his future move.

He continued: “In 2014, before he died, I promised my grandfather who was from Avila, 110 kilometers from Madrid, that I would play there. It will be complicated, but it sits in a corner of my head.
“When I was a kid, I watched Hugo Sanchez videos. The backflip I sometimes do when I score is actually an homage to him.”
