At a press conference, Aubameyang held a signing ceremony with Arsenal, and both parties solemnly signed the contract. As the sound of photographers taking pictures filled the air, the news of Aubameyang's joining Arsenal was announced, and he will now become a member of the Gunners' squad.
After leaving the press conference, he followed the coaching staff to the training ground to greet the players. This time, Mertesacker had Lei Ming preside over the event, while he provided some necessary guidance from the sidelines.
Aubameyang, led by Lei Ming, shook hands and hugged each of the players, and the entire team welcomed his arrival.
After all, everyone knows that this is a very capable player; otherwise, the professor, who is used to being frugal, would not have been willing to spend so much money to invite him over.
Perhaps because they had tasted the success of the transfer, the club was very keen on the player Wenger had designated, and all these factors led to this transfer.
While some of the team's forwards felt some pressure, they still expressed their support.
Surprisingly, Lacazette was the most open-minded, appearing to enjoy his conversation with Aubameyang.
Giroud and Iwobi's attitude was somewhat worse. They only shook hands with Aubameyang and then didn't communicate with him. Lei Ming took in everyone's expressions. As the old captain said, this observation was very important and could prevent problems before they occurred.
Afterwards, Lei Ming led Aubameyang to the locker room, took him to his personal wardrobe, and said with a smile, "Emerick, this is your wardrobe. Are you satisfied with it?"
Aubameyang opened the wardrobe and looked at the brand-new training clothes and shoes inside, expressing his satisfaction.
"Ray, I'm very satisfied. Can we wear them for training now?"
He had no objection to the number 14 the team gave him. As a newcomer, he didn't have the habit of trying to compete for a number. In his view, the key was to establish himself in the Premier League.
The environments in the Bundesliga and the Premier League are completely different, which is a risky challenge for him, but he believes he can succeed here, especially with the encouragement of his vice-captain.
"Of course, I'll wait for you outside. We'll go together after we've changed, and then we can have a practice session first."
As the team's vice-captain, I should at least show some real skills to keep things in check!
Aubameyang was very excited to hear that he would be able to spar with Lei Ming as soon as he arrived, and readily agreed.
He never expected that he would be in such an embarrassing situation!
When his teammates heard that he was going to spar with Lei Ming, almost everyone did the same thing: they stopped their training and lined up to watch.
At first, Aubameyang asked them curiously, "Uh? What's going on here?"
"Hehehe, it's nothing, we're just watching, that's all."
"Yes, let's get to know each other a bit, starting with Lei!"
"Keep up the good work, Emerick!"
The Arsenal players stood together, arms around each other, eagerly anticipating the match. After all, many of them had suffered at the hands of Lei Ming, with a significant number failing to convert any of their ten penalty kicks.
At this moment, they were all eager to see if Aubameyang's skill level could break through Lei Ming's Five Fingers Barrier.
Upon discovering this scene, none of the coaching staff, who sensed something was amiss, stopped them. Instead, they watched with anticipation as the two engaged in their duel.
Lei Ming stood in front of the goal, patted his gloves, and gestured to Aubameyang to "bring it on."
With his first shot, Aubameyang had no intention of holding back. After all, he could feel that many people behind him were watching their movements. It wasn't his debut, but it felt like his debut. How could he embarrass himself?
"Bang!"
With a powerful penalty kick, he headed straight for the open goal that he had previously thought was the most promising. At that moment, he was already mentally preparing how to comfort his vice-captain.
However, to his astonishment, the vice-captain miraculously saved his penalty kick.
Aubameyang stared at the scene with astonishment and disbelief in his eyes.
It's understandable to be brought down on a penalty kick, but to have the penalty kick caught is a different story altogether. You've really used your strongest ability!
Aubameyang turned to his teammates, somewhat embarrassed, wanting to explain that he hadn't shot well, but found that everyone's faces seemed to say "understanding."
"Emeric, again!"
Lei Ming patted his gloves and called back the somewhat bewildered Aubameyang.
In the following minutes, Aubameyang put in more and more effort and made more and more difficult shots, but unfortunately the result was almost the same: none of his ten consecutive shots went in.
This experience almost brought Aubameyang to tears.
Anyone would feel terrible in this situation!
You're the Bundesliga Golden Boot winner, and you're telling me you didn't score a single one of your ten penalty kicks from 12 yards? Can you believe it?
His teammates patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, saying he would get used to it, but even so, he was still very upset!
It has to be said that this was quite a show of force. Seeing Aubameyang, who was just full of vigor, suddenly become dejected, Lei Ming was very satisfied with his masterpiece.
Not far away, the coaching staff were all trying to suppress their laughter, shaking their heads as they saw Lei Ming giving the newcomer such a tough start.
Pat Rice complained to Wenger, "Ray is getting more and more domineering. This show of force is really too cruel. I hope Emeric can get through it."
"Hehe, I think this is a great warm-up activity. Let's make it a tradition for our team from now on!"
On the other hand, Wenger felt it was necessary to maintain this aspect so that every newcomer could feel the pressure from the captain!
Pat Rice: "..."
He was speechless. Although he found it cruel, there was some truth to it.
On the day he joined Arsenal, Aubameyang had a very eventful day at the club. However, when he returned to his rented villa in London, he was greeted by his girlfriend at the door. He immediately threw himself into her arms and cried.
"Emerick, what's wrong? Are you too excited? I watched the whole process of your joining, it was a great success!"
Alysha was a little confused when she saw the other person suddenly acting like a wronged child, and could only passively pat the back of the other person's head.
"Waaaaah! Alysha, this is too cruel, too cruel! I never want to spar with the vice-captain again!"
