Barcelona give updates on Chelsea targets

With less than three weeks to the end of the summer transfer window, Barcelona manager, Xavi Hernandez, has given updates on the futures of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Frenkie de Jong.

It is no longer news that Aubameyang and De Jong have been heavily linked with a move to Chelsea this summer.

Xavi, in a recent statement, hinted that Aubameyang will remain at Camp Nou as he said he is counting on the former Arsenal star for the new season, ahead of their LaLiga opener.

“I’m counting on Pierre Aubameyang. I’m really delighted with him, he can help us.

“Those I am not counting on already know, they know won’t play. Between now and August 31, different things can happen.

On De Jong, he added: ” I consider Frenkie important for me, he’s in the squad and that’s it. Until August 31st, we’ll see because the market is still open.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen with many players until the end of the window.”
