Arsenal manager Unai Emery has revealed why top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has started each of the Gunners' last two games on the bench and has confirmed that the Gabonese striker is available to return to the starting XI against Napoli on Thursday night.
Speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of the game against the dangerous Italians, Emery revealed that Aubameyang had been struggling with illness. That was seemingly the only issue and the player is back in consideration now that he is recovering.
"The first reason [he was benched] is because he had a small problem and he has taken antibiotics for his illness.
