The signings FC Barcelona made in the winter transfer window of 2022 remain their best financial decision since Joan Laporta took charge, as their contributions aided the team through difficult times.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang stood out among the other players in particular.

Even if he joined Arsenal at a point when his career was all but finished, Aubameyang calmly moved over his problems and made sure the shadow of doubt would disappear in Catalonia.

After signing Robert Lewandowski in the summer of 2022, Barcelona ultimately made the decision to split ways with the striker; yet, both the player and the supporters have pleasant memories of his half-season.

Aubameyang had a great time at the time.

Aubameyang continues to give the impression that he is still a Cule at heart, even though he is currently employed by Marseille in France.

He stated, “I think that my six months with Barcelona were the most beautiful period of my career,” in an interview with Prime Video, which was obtained through Onze. I used to go to training on my days off as I loved training and playing matches so much.

Although Aubameyang was not particularly well-known for his collaborative play, it is undeniable that the Gabonese forward scored 13 goals at Barcelona, all of which were highly valued.

With his assistance, the Catalans locked up the second place and embarked on an amazing winning run that included that legendary 4-0 thumping of Real Madrid, in which Aubameyang stole the show.

Considering how bad things were for Barcelona when the 33-year-old’s stunning deadline-day signing was confirmed, the supporters still hold him in high regard for his role in helping the team rise from the ashes, his willingness to accept modest wage demands, and—above all—for filling a significant hole left by a struggling frontline.
