Arsenal star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has admitted that he is delighted at going back to France.

The Gabon striker spent time in the country before his move to Borussia Dortmund in 2013.

And now he is returning with Arsenal, as they face Rennes in the last 16 of the Europa League.

"I'm really looking forward to going back to France, especially since it's next to my home," he said to French outlet RMC.

"I have family coming to the game. If Rennes is here, it's because they deserved it, we do not expect an easy match."
