To score in a derby is to get off to a good start at Barça. Ask the legend Stoichkovwho scored his first goal with the Barça shirt on his debut on a summer night in 1990 in Sarrià. Strictly speaking, this is not Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s first game, but his debut was starred. The expulsion of Daniel Alves against Atlético reduced his contribution to oxygenating the team at the top, but did not approach Oblak’s goal. And although he has signed a contract until 2025 (also with an asterisk, because he may break in 2023), the Gabonese is in a hurry to score.
That he has the goal in mind is evidence. “I’d rather score a goal than give two assists,” he said the other day while responding to a questionnaire from the club’s official media, in which he confessed to being an admirer of Ronaldo Nazario. For someone who speaks five languages (French, English, Spanish, Italian and German), and who already had a house in Sitges, adaptation should not be a problem. What is not going to be so easy is to get an undisputed position. In principle, he should be the starting 9 between now and the end of the season, but Adama’s impressive appearance makes it difficult for him to play as a starter from now on, because Ferran is untouchable. Member 143,282 is in a hurry to prove that he is Black Panther.
