JAKARTA - Barcelona striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has announced a major decision regarding his career in the Gabon national team. Aubameyang has officially retired from his country's football team.
"After 13 years proudly representing my country, I announce that I am ending my international career with the Gabon national team," Aubameyang wrote to the Gabon Football Federation.
Aubameyang was originally born in Laval, France, but he has Gabon origin from his father, Pierre Francois Aubameyang. Not only that, Aubameyang also has Italian and Spanish ancestry from his grandfather.
Prior to playing for the Gabon national team, Aubameyang played for the France U-21 national team. However, despite being able to defend a European country, Aubameyang prefers to join the Gabon national team because he respects his father.
Since joining the Gabon national team in 2009 and finally deciding to resign, Aubameyang has not forgotten to thank several people including the President of the Gabon Football Federation and his staff.
"I want to thank the people of Gabon and everyone who has helped me in the good times and the bad," continued Aubameyang.
