Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s Net Worth in 2021 (estimate): $50 million

Celebrity Net Worth states that the current net worth of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is $50 million. And among his peers in the Premier League, he is included in the top 15 of the highest-paid players this season with £13 million annually.

He bounced around multiple clubs during his youth years before settling with AC Milan in 2007. He was promoted to the senior squad the following year but he never saw the pitch for the Italian club as he was loaned to multiple clubs.

The first two destinations of his loan spells were Dijon during the 2008-2009 season and Lille for the 2009-2010 season. He only scored 10 goals for both clubs in the span of two seasons.

For the 2010-2011 season, he was loaned to two squads, AS Monaco and AS Saint-Étienne. Aubameyang spent the first part of the year with Monaco and he then joined Saint-Étienne until in January 2011, until the end of the season.

On December 22, 2011, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang signed with Saint-Étienne on a permanent basis. He was immediately inserted into the starting lineup and he was given the prestigious No. 7 jersey.

Aubameyang finally broke out in his first full season with Les Verts. He finished the Ligue 1 season with 11 assists and 16 goals, placing him at 4th in the race for Ligue 1’s top scorer.

The following year was even better for Auba as he scored 19 goals and dished out 12 assists in 37 league games. He finished 2nd only behind Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the top goalscorers list. He also helped Saint-Étienne win the 2013 Coupe de la Ligue final, his first trophy as a professional.

Due to his performance, Aubameyang was named the Ligue 1 Best African Player and was included in the UNFP Ligue 1 Team of the Year.

Borussia Dortmund took notice of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and eventually signed him on a five-year contract on July 4, 2013. He became the first Gabonese player to play a Bundesliga match.

Auba quickly established himself as one of the world’s best strikers during his stint with Borussia Dortmund. His accolades with the club include:

  • 2x DFL-Supercup Winner
  • 1x DFB-Pokal Winner
  • 2014-2015 Borussia Dortmund Player of the Season
  • 2015-2016 UEFA Europa League Squad of the Season
  • 2015-2016 Bundesliga Player of the Year
  • 2016-2017 Bundesliga Team of the Season
  • 2016-2017 Bundesliga Top Scorer

In his 5 seasons with the club, Aubameyang played in 213 matches in all competitions and scored 141 goals and dished out 36 assists.

After his successful stint with Borussia Dortmund, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was Premier League-bound as he joined Arsenal on January 31, 2018, on a then-club record transfer fee of £56 million. He signed a four-year £32.7 million contract with the Gunners.

In the 2018-2019 campaign, his first full season at Arsenal, Aubameyang played 36 Premier League games and dished out 5 assists along with league-leading 22 goals — tying him with Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane as they shared that year’s Premier League Golden Boot Award.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had another 22-goal campaign the following year as he helped Arsenal win the FA Cup after he scored a penalty and the eventual winner. He became the first African to win the FA Cup as the team’s captain.

The following year, Aubameyang scored in regular time and the deciding penalty in the shoot out to secure their Community Shield win against Liverpool. On September 15, 2020, he signed a three-year £39 million extension with the Gunners.

In the 2021-2022 season, Aubameyang suffered multiple setbacks as he tested positive for COVID 19 and contracted malaria during international duty. This opened up uncertainties in his future with Arsenal.

As for his international career, Aubameyang initially played for the France U21 squad before deciding to play for the Gabon national team because his father was once the captain of the squad.

He is currently the captain of the Gabon national team and Auba has already appeared in 70 games for them, including multiple Africa Cup of Nations appearances and the 2012 Summer Olympics, along with 28 goals for the country.

Aubameyang is a six-time member of the CAF Team of the Year as well as the 2020 IFFHS CAF Men Team of the Year and the IFFHS CAF Men’s Team of the Decade.

For Auba’s endorsements, he has been affiliated with Nike for many years now where he is featuring the latest apparel and footwear of the American sports brand.

At 32 years old, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang still has a few years left in the tank to produce at a very high level. It is just unsure if those final years will be with Arsenal. Rest assured, Aubameyang will surely contribute to whatever team he ends up playing for.
