He's a gift fallen out of the sky - Xavi hails Barcelona star

Barcelona manager, Xavi Hernandez, has hailed striker, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, branding the Gabon captain as a gift fallen out of the sky.

Aubameyang scored a goal in Barcelona's LaLiga 4-0 win against Osasuna on Sunday.

The 32-year-old has been impressive for Xavi's men since joining the club from Arsenal on transfer deadline day in January.

"Aubameyang is a present that has fallen out of the sky," Xavi said at a news conference as Barcelona defeated Osasuna.

"It's not just [the goals], it's how he trains and his professionalism.

"He's an example, [all the players] are."

Aubameyang will hope to lead Barcelona to victory when they face Galatasaray in the Europa League on Thursday.
