This week will determine whether Chelsea will be able to sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, according to Matt Law’s article in today’s Daily Telegraph.
Timo Werner’s transfer to RB Leipzig and the exit of Callum Hudson-Odoi, according to him, necessitate the acquisition of a new attacker.
However, Xavi Hernandez wants to retain Aubameyang, and even though Barcelona has to raise cash, they are aware that they won’t get much in exchange for the 33-year-old player. Selling Memphis Depay, who was signed as a free agent last year, would be a better choice if they only wanted to make a quick team injection.
Despite Thomas Tuchel’s prior success with the striker, this has always felt like an odd move to us. However, Law is a trustworthy source, so we must believe him when he says we are interested.
It appears to be unrelated to our ongoing fascination with Frenkie De Jong.
