Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang meets Black Panther star Letitia Wright after Newcastle win
Tuesday 2 April 2019 11:08, UK
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is known for his elaborate goal celebrations but the Arsenal striker needed some extra help from Letitia Wright to perfect the Wakanda Forever handshake.
Aubameyang linked up with the Black Panther star on Monday night after helping Arsenal to a 2-0 win over Newcastle at the Emirates.
Aubameyang famously donned a Black Panther mask to celebrate a goal in the 3-0 win over Rennes in the Europa League last month.
However, the Gabon international struggled to get his timing right when attempting to perform the Wakanda Forever handshake with Wright.
Eventually the pair mastered the move after a number of attempts and Wright later took to social media to thank Arsenal for arranging the meet.
