The Barcelona striker ends his Gabon career after ten years of representing the nation.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has confirmed he will not play again for Gabon.
Following an early exit from Gabon’s squad in the Africa Cup of Nations in February, the Barcelona striker has decided to end his international career.
The former Arsenal striker has shown impressive form in his performances for Barcelona since joining the club last winter.
He will now have the chance to solely focus on his career at Camp Nou.
“After 13 years of pride in representing my country, I announce that I am ending my international career,” the Gabon captain wrote.
“I would like to thank the Gabonese people and all those who have supported me.
“I will keep a lot of good memories. Like the day I made my debut at romnisports. Or the day I came back from Nigeria with the African Ballon d’Or.
“Sharing it with all the people was an unforgettable moment. I thank our President, his Excellency Ali Bongo Ondimba who has always supported the Panthers and has always worked for football to evolve in our country.
“I would also like to thank all my coaches, staff and the players that I have come across during this career.
“Finally, I thank my father. He gave me the desire to do like him, hoping to have made him proud by wearing our colours.”
Aubameyang leaves Gabon after making 72 caps and scoring 30 goals for the national team.
