Pierre-François Aubameyang (also spelled Aubame-Eyang; born 29 May 1965) is a Gabonese former professional footballer who played as a centre-back or defensive midfielder. He spent most of his career at French clubs Laval and Le Havre. At international level, he won 29 caps for the Gabon national team.[1] He is the father of Catilina, Willy and Pierre-Emerick.

During his time at Stade Lavallois, Aubameyang became so sick he could not walk. His then-teammate, Franck Leboeuf, claims that the malady was healed by a marabout with black magic after medical doctors could not cure him.[2]

Post-playing career

[edit]

Aubameyang worked as a scout for A.C. Milan.[3]

In September 2018, he was reported to have become joint managers of the Gabon national team with Daniel Cousin.[4] However, a few days later, his son, Pierre-Emerick, said he had not accepted the position.[5] The Gabonese FA admitted they had made an error,[6] and that Cousin was the sole manager.[7]
