Concern for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Gabonese fell ill with malaria and had to be treated in hospital.
The corona crisis still has a firm grip on the world and football. Star kicker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is currently struggling with another virus.
On Thursday, while his Arsenal FC were battling Slavia Prague for the semi-finals in the Europa League, the Gabonese announced that he had malaria.
He was infected with his national team during the international break at the end of March.
The former Dortmund resident shared a selfie from the hospital and said he had spent several days in the hospital. But he is already on the mend.
It is still unclear how long the striker will be out.
