In a thrilling match that showcased the power and versatility of Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, he set a new record for goals scored in a single season for Marseille.
Aubameyang, known for his exceptional goal-scoring ability, continued to dazzle the French champions with his performances on Saturday night. In a 4-2 victory over Lyon, Aubameyang not only netted his first goal of the season but also surpassed the previous club record for most goals in a single season.
The former Arsenal player has now tallied 19 goals in the 2023-2024 campaign for Marseille, which is more than any other player in the club’s history. This milestone comes as Marseille prepares for the upcoming Champions League group stage, where they will face some of the best teams in Europe.

The striker’s goal came in the 57th minute of the game, when he capitalized on a loose ball after a corner kick. His goal was followed by two assists from teammates, further solidifying Marseille’s position at the top of the table.
Marseille coach Guillaume Pochet expressed satisfaction with Aubameyang’s performance, saying, "Pierre-Emerick is a true asset to our team. He has shown incredible consistency throughout the season and continues to be one of the most dangerous players in the league."
As Marseille looks to build momentum for their Champions League campaign, Aubameyang’s record-breaking goal serves as a testament to his talent and dedication. The striker’s success not only boosts Marseille’s morale but also sets high expectations for him and the rest of the team heading into the tournament.
This achievement highlights the importance of individual contributions in a team setting and showcases the potential of talented players like Aubameyang to make significant impacts in both domestic and international competitions.
