Here are 2 AFCON stars for Manchester City to watch out for

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Speculation has been rife about the future of Borussia Dortmund forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang this season.

The Gabon international scored 39 goals in just 49 games for the German side last season, and has continued his phenomenal goal-scoring record this time around, netting 19 times in just 18 appearances for Thomas Tuchel’s side.

Unsurprisingly, the supremely prolific forward has been attracting interest from several top European clubs, one of which is Manchester City.

Aubameyang’s Gabon will host next month’s African Cup of Nations, and the 27-year-old will have a big say in how well the host nation does in the tournament.

It’s a competition Guardiola and his staff should take a good look at, especially to keep an eye on the form of Aubameyang.
