‘Madness if Arsenal sell Aubameyang to Man Utd’ – Parlour can’t see repeat of Van Persie situation

Arsenal have been warned that it would be 'madness' to sell Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Manchester United, with Ray Parlour hoping to avoid a repeat of Robin van Persie’s controversial move in 2012.

The Gabonese striker has become the subject of unwanted transfer talk of late.

A shock switch to Old Trafford has been mooted, with the 30-year-old said to be open to the idea of heading north from the Emirates Stadium.
