Alexandre Lacazette has been 'positive' for me at Arsenal... I wasn't 100 per sure about him when I arrived, admits Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has praised the impact of playing alongside Arsenal team-mate Alexandre Lacazette, although he admits he was dubious about it initially.

Aubameyang joined Arsenal from Borussia Dortmund in a club-record £65million deal in January.

The move saw the Gabon international reunited with a familiar face in Lacazette - with the former revealing he was sceptical at first about their relationship.

During their spells in France, Aubameyang played for Saint-Etienne while Lacazette played for their bitter rivals Lyon.
