Rummenigge slams Aubameyang and Arsenal: All about money

Former Borussia Dortmund star Michael Rummenigge has blasted Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang over his wish to join Arsenal.

The Gunners have had two bids rejected for the Gabon international, 28, with Arsenal yet to meet Dortmund's asking price, which is thought to be around £60m.

Arsenal [in] London is no top club in Europe. In this matter, it's all about the money," said Rummenigge.

"Borussia Dortmund has developed into a training club for the top clubs in Europe."

BVB chief Michael Zorc has stated they're prepared to sell their striker in the coming days.

"Arsenal has started several attempts so far. We have all rejected so far.

"Either our demands are fulfilled, then there can be another transfer or else they will not be fulfilled and Auba will play in Dortmund until the summer.

"So it is also discussed and accepted by the Aubameyang family."
