Former AC Milan sporting director Mirabelli admits Aubameyang’s regret

Former AC Milan sporting director Massimiliano Mirabelli has admitted that his failure to sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang remains one of his regrets.

The Red and Blacks were in negotiation with the former Borussia Dortmund striker but after failing to reach an agreement with him in time, the forward joined Arsenal in a club-record deal.

Aubameyang has continued to impress with the Gunners since the move, scoring 32 goals in all competitions, including 17 in the Premier League this season.
