Newcastle want to kickstart their fight against relegation by snapping up Arsenal outcast Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on loan, according to reports.
Aubameyang's future at the Emirates looks non existent after he was stripped of the captaincy by manager Mikel Arteta following multiple disciplinary breaches and has not featured for the Gunners since early last month.
The Gabon striker has been released to play for his country at the Africa Cup of Nations with the former Dortmund star not likely to receive any game time in the near future, and Newcastle are keen to rescue him from his nightmare, as reported by the Mirror.
