Liverpool Transfer News: Spotlight On Summer Target Pierre-emerick Aubameyang by MUSICOGA: 6:17pm On May 11, 2015
Liverpool need someone to score goals on a regular basis and that could be Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Here, talkSPORT looks at the 25-year-old...
Name: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Date of birth: 18/06/89
Born: Laval, north west France
Club: Borussia Dortmund
Position: Forward
International: 39 Gabon caps, 16 goals (correct as of 11/05/15)

What's the latest?
Liverpool will be without main goal threat Daniel Sturridge until after the start of next season, leading to reports the club are looking closely at £15m-rated Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. This season he has scored 22 goals in all competitions, including this Panenka penalty.

Did you know?
1) Naturally, his ability to score goals is a plus for any striker, but his speed is devastating, too, described by manager Jurgen Klopp as “incredible”. He can score with his head, via free-kicks and on his Bundesliga debut celebrated a hat-trick in a 4-0 win against Augsburg. He is also able to play in a wide role.

2) Having come through the youth ranks at Milan in 2008, Aubameyang was loaned to Dijon, Lille, Monaco and then St Etienne in his native France. He joined the latter permanently in 2011 and signed for Dortmund two years later. In his final season in Ligue 1 he scored 19 goals in 37 games.

3) He's known for his goal celebrations in Germany and as well as frequent summersaults, he has also donned a Spiderman mask as well as a Batman one, with team-mate Marco Reus as Robin.

4) Although he was born in France and played for the U21 side, Aubameyang plays for Gabon, whom his father, Pierre, played for.

5) He idolised former Brazil striker Ronaldo, though he does have a tattoo that reads: “Crespo for life”. Of Ronaldo he said: “He was dynamic, strong in the air, technically-gifted, fast - a giant of a player”
