Chelsea ready to meet Barcelona over astonishing huge money transfer

This window has been characterized for Chelsea fans by our relationship with Barcelona – from that first meeting between Todd Boehly and Joan Laporta, through the different arrangements that have (and haven’t) gone through between the two clubs, to the players they purchased that we needed.

Presently it seems like we might be getting one off them – the Daily Mail reports that there will be immediate talks between the two clubs this midday about the fate of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The Gabonese international has 11 goals in 13 games since arriving in Catalonia in January, however the arrival of Robert Lewandowski combined with their urgent need for cash implies that Barcelona might be compelled to sell.

Thomas Tuchel seriously loves the striker, and is interested to have him ready for this season. We wouldn’t typically back the signing of a 33 year old for huge millions, however we’re willing to back Tuchel.
