Rafa Benitez has provided an inside story on the feud between Mikel Arteta and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang that led to the latter leaving Arsenal.
Aubameyang departed the Gunners at the end of this year's January transfer window having fallen out with Arteta. The striker was stripped of the captaincy and sent into the cold by the Arsenal boss after returning back late from a personal trip to France.
Arteta faced some criticism for his decisions that led to Aubameyang leaving the Premier League side for Barcelona. But Benitez, who was manager of Liverpool, Real Madrid and Newcastle, has now thrown his support behind his countryman.
