According to Fabrizio Romano on Twitter, a “full agreement is now sealed” between Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, his camp, and Chelsea over the player’s contract.
The transfer expert adds that Barcelona and the Blues are still in talks to seal a move as soon as possible before the transfer window deadline today. A contract of two years has been proposed for the 33-year-old striker.
It is said to have an option that could see it extended by another year beyond that. It is always a plus point to agree on terms with a player as it would save the club an additional headache if and when they reach an agreement with the club over a transfer.
It seems Barca are the only hurdle between Chelsea and the Gabon international now. Manager Xavi Hernandez knows that Robert Lewandowski is the man to lead Barcelona’s attack this season after his transfer from Bayern Munich.
This leaves the 33-year-old dry and hanging. He left Arsenal to join the Camp Nou outfit earlier this year in January but the club could now sell him after signing a striker like Lewandowski.
No one can blame them as well, given the Poland international’s goal-scoring record in Germany with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich. For us, that creates an ideal scenario to sign Auba.
With Romelu Lukaku off to Inter Milan on a loan deal and Timo Werner permanently at RB Leipzig after sealing a return earlier this summer, we have space in our attack to fit Aubameyang.
Kai Havertz would perhaps be the player whose position as a centre-forward would be under the most threat after the African striker’s potential arrival. He seems to be struggling in the number nine role and it is about time manager Thomas Tuchel takes a call.
The Germany international has yet to score a goal for Chelsea in any of their five league games this season and has also failed to provide a single assist during that time.
