The striker highlighted his importance on Wednesday night by scoring a brace in their comfortable win over Norwich.

He celebrated his feat, which saw him score his 50th top-flight goal for Arsenal, by posting on Instagram - and teammate Maitland-Niles was quick to make his feelings known.

Aubameyang wrote: "It's a privilege to be a Football Player!!! You can have this Type of feelings That gives you goosebumps. 50!!!!!! You can call me Fofty Ainsley Maitland-Niles."

"Sign the contract bruh, stop posting fofty," responded Maitland-Niles.

Aubameyang reacted to his teammate's response by replying with a series of laughing emjois, reports the Mirror.
