"It's the first time in my career I've been injured for more than ten days"

Aubameyang underwent surgery two weeks ago for a right knee meniscus injury and faces another six weeks out; the striker says it's his first injury lasting over ten days in his career.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had arthroscopic surgery two weeks ago after tearing the external meniscus of his right knee in a match against Betis. The 37-year-old Deportivo striker will miss approximately six more weeks of action. He is progressing well in recovery, already off crutches and working in the gym, though he acknowledged the mental difficulty when learning surgery was necessary. Aubameyang has scored five goals this season and plans to return gradually once his knee is fully stable.
