Arsenal ace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang admits he was inspired to get into football by his father.
Pierre Snr was a pro in France and had a big say in Aubameyang leaving Borussia Dortmund for Arsenal last month.
Aubameyang recalled to the Mirror: “When I was kid I would go to the stadium to watch my dad Pierre play when he was at Le Havre, Toulouse, Nice and Rouen. It was incredible. After his matches I would play on my own in the living room.
“I'd mimic the fans and then give interviews just like I do today! I am living my childhood dream. I think that is something magnificent for a child like me."
Pierre Snr added: “I think my own career was very present in his development. He listened to my advice as a footballer."
