Pierre- Emerick Aubameyang, teammate Mario Lemina and assistant coach Yala Anicet all tested positive after taking a lateral flow test and are awaiting the results from a PCR one.

“They underwent a PCR test and are isolating in their hotel,” said Neveu, adding they displayed no symptoms.

Aubameyang — who was stripped of the Arsenal captaincy last month — is at risk of missing Gabon’s opening group C match against Comoros on 10 January in the biennial African showpiece tournament being hosted by Cameroon. They go on to play further matches against Ghana and Morocco.
