Noa Lang spotted wearing an Arsenal shirt

Arsenal are one of the biggest clubs in the world.

The Gunners have fans from across the globe, and the support for them now is stronger than it has ever at the Emirates Stadium.

Several footballers playing at the highest level are Arsenal supporters as well.

One good example is Sporting Lisbon star Morten Hjulmand.

The talented Danish midfielder, who has been heavily linked with a move to Tottenham, is such a huge fan of the Gunners that he even has a tattoo of them.

The likes of Barcelona star Raphinha and AC Milan’s Raphael Leao have also expressed their admiration for Arsenal over the last year.

Another player who appears to be an Arsenal fan is Noa Lang. The PSV Eindhoven forward posted a few pictures of himself on Instagram this week and he can be seen wearing the Gunners’ third kit in two photos.

Noa Lang says Arsenal wanted to sign him to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Pierre-Emerick Aubemeyang was Arsenal’s captain before he fell out with Mikel Arteta.

The Gabon international was incredible in his first few years at the club. He was among the best players in the Premier League back then.

However, disciplinary issues ended his time at Arsenal. and his contract was terminated in January 2022.

Arsenal wanted to sign a new striker at the time, and Noa Lang, who was at Club Brugge then, was apparently a target for Mikel Arteta. However, the deal could not be done in the end.

“Because one of them only really left at the last minute [Aubameyang], they [Arsenal] wanted to hire someone quickly. But that was no longer possible,” Lang said a few months later.
