Aubameyang joined AC Milan from Triestina in 2005.[1] Over his first three seasons at the club, he played in their youth teams, though appearing as an unused substitute for the first team in some Serie A and Coppa Italia games, as well as playing several pre-season friendlies (once even scoring against Juventus).[2] On 20 December 2007, he eventually made his official debut in a Coppa Italia match against Catania.[3]
Aubameyang spent the following seasons on various loan spells: at Avellino in 2008–09,[4] at Belgian side Eupen in 2009–10,[5] and at Monza in the first half of the 2010–11 season.[6]
In January 2011, he was signed permanently by Scottish Premier League club Kilmarnock, after a successful trial.[7]
In summer 2011, Aubameyang's short term contract with Kilmarnock expired and he has since left the club.
Aubameyang has been called up by the Gabonese national team since 2009.
His father Pierre is a former Gabonese international; while his two brothers Catilina and Pierre-Emerick are footballers too and have both played at Milan like him.
