Aubameyang, 31, is tied down at the Emirates until the end of the 2020/21 season

Negotiations are said to be positive over Aubameyang penning a new deal in North London, with the striker understood to be seeking £250,000-a-week.

And after Bukayo Saka's contract extension was announced, the Gabon international confirmed talks are planned about him commiting his future to Arsenal.

Mikel Arteta recently urged the club not to cash in on their prized asset, as he stated he is hopeful terms can be reached with the cub captain.

Aubameyang appeared with his brother Willy in an Instagram live video which was posted on Twitter today.

In the video an Arsenal fan urges him: "Blink if you're gunna sign."

Moments later, the forward winked at the camera before performing an exaggerated wink and grinning wildly, leaving Arsenal fans to believe it's a sure sign he's staying.

One tweeted: "Done deal."

Another messaged: "It's the hope that kills ya."

A third added: "LOLLLLL THE WAY HE BLINK LMAOOOO."

Meanwhile, one simply stated: "He's staying."

Another happily posted: "This is so Arsenal, and I love it!"

Aubameyang has once again been in fine form this season as he leads Arsenal's goalscoring charts with 22 strikes in 37 games in all competitions.
