Barcelona striker takes decision on joining Chelsea

With a few days left to the end of the summer window, Barcelona striker, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has reportedly made a decision on his move to Chelsea.

Weeks ago, it was reported that Aubameyang doesn’t favour a move to Chelsea and would prefer to remain at Camp Nou.

With Barcelona in need of cash to register  €55 million (£46.4m) summer signing, Jules Kounde, they had hoped to offload Frenkie de Jong, but it seems Aubameyang Is the one who may be leaving as he is said closer to an exit, despite only joining them in February from Arsenal.

A report via Sky Sport claim Aubameyang is close to moving back to the Premier League as Chelsea and Barcelona have reportedly reached an agreement to sell him.

According to the report, the Blues manager Thomas Tuchel has been the driving force behind Chelsea’s push to sign Aubameyang.

This is because the German boss still has a positive relationship with Aubameyang after their time together in the Germans league with Borussia Dortmund.
