Aubameyang birthday messages flooded timelines today. The man turns 37 on June 18, 2026, and nobody stayed quiet about it.
The Liga de Campeones account led the way with a direct shoutout and a short video clip. The footage shows a packed stadium, players sprinting, and that unmistakable European-match intensity. It felt right for a player who has built a career on nights exactly like that.
The Heart Pulls Him Home to Marseille
Aubameyang returned to Olympique de Marseille in July 2025 on a free transfer. He called it a choice of the heart. After stops at Arsenal, Barcelona, Chelsea, and a year in Saudi Arabia with Al-Qadsiah, the pull of the Velodrome and the OM faithful proved strongest.
In the 2025-26 season he posted 10 goals and 5 assists in 30 Ligue 1 appearances. At 37 he still stretches defenses, still arrives in the box with perfect timing, and still carries himself like the leader who once captained Arsenal to an FA Cup trophy.
European Nights That Defined a Career
The video in today’s birthday post captures the atmosphere Aubameyang has owned for years. He scored a famous hat-trick for Dortmund in the Champions League. He delivered a Europa League semi-final hat-trick for Arsenal against Valencia. He became the competition’s all-time leading scorer during his first spell at Marseille before the record moved on.
Even this season Marseille’s European campaign gave him fresh moments. The speed and finishing that made him a nightmare for defenders never really left. The celebrations, the big-game mentality, the way he reads a defense two steps ahead — all still there.
Arsenal Fans Remember Their Hero
Arsenal supporters posted some of the warmest tributes today. They remembered the 92-goal spell, the shared Premier League Golden Boot in 2018-19, the FA Cup final penalty he buried as captain, and the way he carried the team through some lean years. Those memories travel with him wherever he plays.

Barcelona fans recalled the debut hat-trick and the El Clásico brace. Chelsea fans nodded to the Champions League goals. Marseille fans simply treated him like family again. That kind of cross-club respect does not happen by accident.
Still Writing Chapters at 37
Watch Aubameyang closely and you see the small details that keep him effective. The positioning inside the box. The way he times runs to stay onside. The leadership in training and the way younger players look to him. Experience has replaced raw athletic peak, and the results stay impressive.
The birthday post from the Champions League account felt like a reminder. This is a player whose best work often came under the brightest lights. Marseille fans already know the feeling when he finds the net at home — the whole place erupts.
Today the game tipped its cap. Happy 37th, Aubameyang. The journey keeps rolling.
