Paris (AFP) – A miserable week for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang concluded with the Gabonese forward conceding the own goal that condemned Arsenal to a 1-0 Premier League home defeat by fellow strugglers Burnley.
The Gabon Football Federation were fined $10,000 (8,200 euros) by the Confederation of African Football after Aubameyang posted social media footage of his national team-mates sleeping on an airport floor last month.
CAF said the star had “published offensive and degrading material that undermined the honour and image of CAF” after Gambia initially barred the Gabonese from leaving the airport because of Covid-19 issues.
