Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Showed Up To An Awards Ceremony In Street Clothes Because His Luggage Got Lost

Borussia Dortmund and Gabon National Team striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was dressed a little different from his contemporaries at the African Player of the Year gala. Aubameyang, who won the award last year, showed up in street clothes, apparently because his luggage got lost.

This is unfortunate, yes, but Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, near as we can tell, makes more than $4 million. Couldn't he have just bought another suit? We'll probably never know.

Leicester City and Algeria midfielder Riyad Mahrez took home the award. Liverpool and Senegal winger Sadio Mane was also nominated.
