Deportivo La Coruna striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang underwent knee surgery on Thursday, his club announced, and is expected to be out for two months.

n

The 37-year-old had an operation on the meniscus in his right knee at a clinic in Madrid after feeling discomfort during Sunday’s draw with Real Betis.

n

The club said Gabon’s all-time top scorer would return to La Coruna.

n

“His progress will determine when he returns to training,” Deportivo said in a statement.

n

The Spanish press reported that the former Arsenal and Chelsea player was expected to be sidelined for nearly two months.

n

Aubameyang has scored five of his side’s 10 league goals as promoted Deportivo have made a strong start to the season. They sit seventh in La Liga with 10 points from seven games.

n

He quit international duty earlier this month, saying he felt “humiliated” after the Gabonese government singled him out as responsible for a disappointing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations campaign.
