Bukayo Saka's Instagram message to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after Arsenal beat Man United

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was in the mood to celebrate during and after Arsenal's 1-0 win over Manchester United.

The 31-year-old scored the only goal of the game on Sunday afternoon as the Gunners recorded a first Premier League win at Old Trafford in 14 long years.

Furthermore, Aubameyang broke his own mini-goal drought in the league having not found the back of the net since Arsenal's win over Fulham on the opening weekend of the season.

Mikel Arteta : I like players with zero ego

After scoring from the penalty spot, the striker celebrated with a dance - which has since seen supporters rename the 'Theatre of Dreams' as the Gunners' 'dancefloor'.

But it's what the Arsenal captain has done in the aftermath of the win that will impress fans even more.

As revealed by teammate Bukayo Saka, Aubameyang presented the wonderkid with a new chain just over 24 hours after both players started in the win over the Red Devils.

Taking to social media to upload a video of the gift, the teenager had a message for his captain.

"MY captain and your captain are NOT the same!!" Saka wrote on Instagram. "This is is crazy bro.

"Thank you again for my new chain! God bless you."

To which Aubameyang responded with some words of advice for Saka.

"Petit Piment, you deserve my lil Bro," he said. "Stay the Same. God bless you."

The origins of Saka's unusual nickname was explained by the Gunners captain last season.

"I call him this (Little Chilli) but in French so it is 'Petit Piment'", Aubameyang told Sky Sports.

"It's because he is like a little chilli, so much energy, so much power and is quite small so it's funny."
