I think people have trouble grasping realistic values of players, even managers like ferguson and Wenger who spent years not buying players because there was supposedly "no value in the market." It is almost pointless saying he is worth this or that, it means nothing because the market is shifting so massively so quickly every summer I don't think anybody really has an idea of relative values of players. So you either pay what it takes to get a player if you desperately want him and take the hit or you don't but then you know that alternative targets are unlikely to be better value or else they're going to be a shite, "false economy" compromise. As for Aubameyang, he has a pretty much identical goals per league match record as Lewandowski had at Dortmund, he is quick and strong and is a very decent finisher, rightly he's going to be viewed as one of the best strikers in Europe who can realistically be got out of his current club this summer, to say he is worth 25 million is just not even approaching reality.
