Ex-Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang said on Wednesday he is leaving Marseille after just one season with the French club.

Gabon attacker Aubameyang, 35, joined the southern club from Chelsea last July and scored 30 goals during the campaign.

"It's time for me to start a new chapter," Aubameyang said on Instagram.

"I have always followed the advice of my father, who has allowed me to become the player I am and we have made this decision for the next part of my career.

"I spent a year filled with emotion and I thank the club, the staff, my team-mates and our supporters," he added.
