Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has never played professional club football in Africa, but check out his dad's awesome explanation for his son's tattoo!
The Gabonese international has always played the beautiful game overseas, and at the moment, he's one of the world's top strikers!
Aubameyang has a large tattoo of a map of the African continent on his back, which appears to be carried by an eagle, and in a recent interview, the Borussia Dortmund star's father explained what it means!

"I'm sure you'll see him without his shirt on," he said.
"Then you'll see a map of Africa tattooed on his back with a beautiful bird above it.
"I see this eagle lifting Africa. Flapping its wings and lifting this map of Africa.
"In his subconscious, maybe Pierre-Emerick sees himself as a player that has to lift Africa."
What do you think of the tattoo and its meaning?
