Arsenal star Aubameyang trains with Greek side AO Mykonos’ academy side and poses for photos with star-struck kids
PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG gave youngsters at Greek side A.O. Mykonos’ academy a nice surprise by training and taking pictures with them.
The Arsenal captain was pictured smiling as he indulged in a pre-season kick-about with the teens in the Greek city.
He can be seen putting himself through their training regime in a Gunners shirt with a focused look in his face.
And to top off their day, the 31-year-old left life-long memories of the epic moment by posing for snaps with the budding ballers.
The occasion was shared by Football.London reporter Chris Wheatley who called the Gunners hit-man class for his act.
He wrote: “Auba trained with the A.O. Mykonos academy side and posed for photos with the players after the session. Class.
“Amazing experience for those youngsters training alongside the #AFC captain.”
The French ace seems to be developing a knack for training abroad with local teams.
Earlier this month, he scored a wonder-goal while training in his home country with local side Le Mans.
Auba, in his No 14 Gunners jersey started off with a series of rapid step-overs before cutting inside and smashing a long-distance effort home while leaning away from goal.
