Chelsea is poised to make an offer for Barcelona striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as they bid to take advantage of the financial problems engulfing the Catalan club.
Former Chelsea winger, Gus Poyet believes that Barcelona’s Aubameyang will be a good replacement for Timi Werner and Romelu Lukaku.
“Aubameyang would be perfect for Chelsea. He looks happy and back to his best scoring goals” he told Lord Ping.
“I do not know why Chelsea and Barcelona are constantly trying to sign and steal the same players from each other this summer,” he said.
“Both clubs want similar players even though they are nothing alike.”
A shock move for Aubameyang may be the only option left for Chelsea as the new Premier League season kicks on into its second week but fans won’t be impressed by the Gabonese’s stats leading up to his Arsenal exit.
