Arsenal hero Paul Merson says Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would only be moving to Manchester United for money.

Aubameyang has been linked with moves to Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain, and Merson revealed the only reason the Gunners captain would snub those two for United would be an epic wage packet.

He told Sky Sports: "I don't think you can say Aubameyang would be going for ambition if he went to Manchester United.

"He'd be going for the money because he's almost 31 and this would likely to be his last move.

"At the moment, you can't say you are going to go to Manchester United and get guaranteed trophies. You won't be able to guarantee United winning anything in the next two or three seasons. They are getting better but it's not ambitions, it's the money.

"If it was Manchester City or Liverpool, that would be different. You'd be thinking of course, he's ambitious and he wants to win things.

"I'm not saying United won't win things, but you can't assure me of it. I can assure you Man City or Liverpool will in the next few years."
