After only six months at Barcelona, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is considering a move to Chelsea
It's possible that Chelsea will unexpectedly step in to help Barcelona pay off some further salaries, which would be pretty amusing.
This summer, the two teams engaged in a fierce competition for Raphinha and Jules Kounde while also seeking to bargain for a number of players on the opposing side.
It was revealed on Wednesday night that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is a target for Chelsea. If Timo Werner departs the team, the 33-year-old might step in for the Blues.
The Telegraph reported that the Gabonese would be open to relocating to London, and Sport has reported this information. Aubameyang didn't get to Barcelona until the first of February and scored 13 goals in the second half of last season, but Robert Lewandowski’s arrival means he is likely to be playing second fiddle this season.
Barcelona would probably be amenable to a transfer as well, given their rising pay this season. Even though Xavi Hernandez wants two excellent players to fill each of his positions, doing so might be advantageous for both the club's finances and the player's game time.
According to rumors, Chelsea could be interested in signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Barcelona this summer.
Aubameyang, a 33-year-old new attacker, has been included in transfer rumors regarding Chelsea over the past 24 hours.
On Wednesday night, Fabrizio Romano said that the Blues were considering a move for the former Arsenal center-forward, who had only recently made a permanent move to Barcelona.
An fascinating new update from Telegraph journalist Matt Law
Law claimed on Twitter that Chelsea is still interested in signing Aubameyang even though they have not yet contacted him.
The fact that Aubameyang is enthusiastic about the thought of going back to London, albeit in Chelsea colors rather than Arsenal red, is a huge development.
He had two separate seasons in 2021/22 with Arsenal and Barcelona, yet he still managed to score 20 goals overall.
When you consider Romelu Lukaku's performance from a year ago, which led to his return to Inter Milan on loan this summer, you may say that he is the most recent victim of Chelsea's No. 9 curse.
