Sixteen goals in 15 Bundesliga appearances, and the opening goal at the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.

On Saturday, in the 52nd minute of the Africa Cup of Nations' inaugural fixture between Gabon and Guinea-Bissau, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's club form carried over to the international level. After the ball fell to Denis Bouanga, the Gabonese midfielder blasted it into the six-yard box allowing the Bundesliga's top scorer to give Les Pantheres a 1-0 lead.
