Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang insists he doesn't need titles to be regarded as a great striker.

Aubameyang, the Premier League's joint-top goalscorer with 17 goals this term, will have just one year to run on his contract come the summer and is yet to win silverware since joining the club in January 2018.

He told Sky Sports: "I'm a striker so I will defend my side - I don't think you need trophies to be a top striker.

"Of course, it can help you but we've seen a lot of great players that didn't win trophies but we respect them because of their quality.

"You don't need to win trophies but if you win it, it's better."
