Aubameyang not patriotic enough: Team dissolved!

Arsenal FC’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has hit a dead-end in an unexpected move where Gabon’s Minister for Sport Alain Bilie ‘dissolved’ the national football team.

Gone down the drain in the fit was the team’s head coach Daniel Cousin. Mr Bilie said the current squad in the national team were no as patriotic.

“We are going to rebuild the national team on a new basis by setting aside everyone who is characterized by a lack of envy, patriotism, and who have put more emphasis on financial resources, the nation and the spirit,” Bilie explained.

The minister’s decision comes in the wake of the team’s disappointing campaign at the just concluded 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.N
