Aubameyang began his senior club career by signing for Italian club AC Milan, but never appeared for the club, instead going on a series of loan spells in France. He transferred to Saint-Étienne in 2011. There he won a Coupe de la Ligue title, subsequently joining Borussia Dortmund in 2013.{{cite news |title=The 100 best footballers in the world 2016 – interactive |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2016/dec/20/the-100-best-footballers-in-the-world-2016-interactive |newspaper=The Guardian |date=20 December 2016}} In Germany, Aubameyang finished as the league's top goalscorer in the 2016–17 season and won a DFB-Pokal. He also ranks as the club's eighth-highest all-time goalscorer. In 2018, Aubameyang was the subject of a then–club record association football transfer when he signed for Arsenal in a move worth £56 million (€60 million), making him the most expensive Gabonese player of all time.{{cite news |title=Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang completes £56m Arsenal move |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/jan/31/pierre-emerick-aubameyang-joins-arsenal-deadline-day-transfer |newspaper=The Guardian |date=31 January 2018 |access-date=31 January 2018}} With Arsenal, he won an FA Cup and finished as the league's joint-top goalscorer in the 2018–19 season.{{cite news |title=Aubameyang: Arsenal's talisman |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/53625368 |publisher=BBC Sport |date=1 August 2020}} After leaving Arsenal in 2022, Aubameyang had spells with Barcelona and Chelsea before signing for Marseille in 2023.

On 1 December, following the dismissal of Emery, Aubameyang scored both goals in Arsenal's 2–2 draw with Norwich City under interim head coach Freddie Ljungberg. Aubameyang's first goal (a penalty) had to be retaken, after VAR discovered there to be encroachment in the penalty area. Aubameyang's first effort was kept out by goalkeeper Tim Krul, however, his second effort (the same side as his previous attempt), was successfully converted.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50534313|title=Norwich City 2–2 Arsenal: Freddie Ljungberg says Gunners can '100%' make the top four|last=Sutcliffe|first=Steve|website=BBC Sport|date=1 December 2019|access-date=1 December 2019}}

Aubameyang scored in Arsenal's 1–1 draw with Crystal Palace on 11 January 2020, but was also sent off for a late challenge on Palace midfielder Max Meyer. Aubameyang was originally given a yellow card for the tackle by referee Paul Tierney, however, the card was eventually upgraded to a red card, by the VAR, resulting in Aubameyang's first-ever red card for the Gunners and would mean that the striker would miss Arsenal's next three matches against Sheffield United, Chelsea, and Arsenal's FA Cup tie against Bournemouth.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50990599|title=Crystal Palace 1–1 Arsenal: Jordan Ayew scores equaliser for hosts as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sent off|last=Falkingham|first=Katie|website=BBC Sport|date=11 January 2020|access-date=11 January 2020}}

On 27 February, in Arsenal's Europa League second leg round of 32 match against Olympiacos and with the aggregate score tied at 1–1, Aubameyang's scissor kick goal in extra time allowed his side to equalize the match and lead the tie on aggregate.

Following the resumption of the league in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Aubameyang did not score or assist in the first three Premier League games after the restart for Arsenal, but eventually netted a brace on 1 July against Norwich City in a 4–0 rout. Aubameyang's first goal was his 50th in the league for Arsenal, making him the quickest player to reach 50 goals for the club in the Premier League era, having achieved the feat in just 79 league appearances, four games quicker than all-time club goalscorer Thierry Henry, and also became the sixth fastest to 50 in the Premier League, behind Andy Cole, Alan Shearer, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Fernando Torres and Mohamed Salah.{{cite news|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/arsenal-pierreemerick-aubameyang-50-premier-league-goals-a4486121.html|title=Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang becomes fastest Arsenal player to 50 Premier league goals with Norwich strike|last=Ouzia|first=Malik|website=Evening Standard|date=1 July 2020|access-date=1 July 2020}} Aubameyang also assisted the Gunners' second goal, which was scored by Granit Xhaka.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52072989|title=Arsenal 4–0 Norwich City: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scores two|last=Johnston|first=Neil|website=BBC Sport|date=1 July 2020|access-date=1 July 2020}} He ended the season with 22 league goals, one behind Jamie Vardy, the winner of the Golden Boot, and tied with Danny Ings for second place.{{Cite web|title=Premier League Top Scorers |url=https://www.premierleague.com/stats/top/players/goals|access-date=24 August 2020|website=Premier League}}
