The 31-year-old has already scored 10 goals in his last 10 games, including seven of Arsenal’s last eight in all competitions.
The Gunners captain, who scored 29 goals last season, is expected to put pencil on paper on an extension that will commit him to Arsenal until 2023. However, he reportedly had other offers on the table.

His salary will usurp all of his teammates in 12 months after £ 350,000-a-week playmaker Mesut Ozil leaves for free.
Romano tweeted: “Mikel Arteta has just confirmed again that Pierre Aubameyang is ‘close’ to extending his contract.
“Arsenal considers that the agreement is almost ‘reached and completed’, the deal is done – it rejected another 2 offers.
“Gabriel Magalhaes will be announced soon. #AFC #transfers “.
