Aubameyang has signed for Barcelona on a free transfer from Arsenal.
Arsenal became willing to allow the 32-year-old to leave after stripping him of the captaincy in December following a disciplinary issue.
The 32-year-old did not play for the club after December 6, and was left out of their squad for their warm-weather training camp in Dubai.
Aubameyang, who scored 92 goals in 163 games for the Gunners, leaves the Emirates Stadium inside the final 18 months of a contract worth £350,000 a week.
