Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is very close to leaving Barcelona. If nothing goes wrong, the Gabonese will move to Chelsea for 22 million euros plus five million euros in variables. Xavi Hernandez favours other strikers like Robert Lewandowski for this season. The news source that first reported it, "Relevo," even indicates that a contract has already been signed.
The setup appears to be perfect for the Camp Nou offices. The player left Arsenal and arrived in Barcelona. When he was a Gunner, Mikel Arteta was his coach. For an act of indiscipline that was never made apparent, Arteta stripped him of his captaincy and his significance in the team.
In exchange for his free induction into the ranks of the "Cules," the Emirates Stadium officials promised to negotiate a deal to get rid of him. In this manner, Joan Laporta and his team will soon receive roughly $30 million after generating a specific athletic profit of 13 goals and one assist in 24 games in exchange for a small outlay of capital.
Additionally, this action is crucial to resolving Barcelona's present registration issue. Jules Kounde should ideally be registered by the third La Liga matchday. There should be no obstacle to that occurring given Aubameyang's departure and Memphis' likely contract expiration.
