Barcelona News
Aubameyang is one of Barcelona’s potential targets for next season. The Blaugrana club is aware of the player’s interest in returning, but has already warned him that the financial sacrifice he must make will be high given the salary limit crisis that Barcelona is facing.
Barcelona had been aware for months of the intentions of Aubameyang, who made several visits to be with his former teammates. The most striking was El Clasico, where he went down to the locker room to celebrate the Blaugrana’s victory over Madrid with a goal by Kessie. In January, he was already offered to return, but the regulations prevented him from registering, so everything was paralyzed until the summer.
FC Barcelona knows the quality of Aubameyang and the performance he gave in the half year he was at Camp Nou. The striker finally made the move to Chelsea, where he reached a very high salary deal that ended up convincing him.
In London, he has had almost no role and knows that the English club wants him to leave at any cost to save his wages. Of course, Chelsea want some financial considerations and there are clubs like Inter Milan willing to pay a small amount.
His signature is only being considered if he arrives at no cost – whether on loan or on a final free transfer – and reduces his current salary by around fifty percent. It looks like the Gabonese striker is ready to do just that.
Barcelona take the option to sign Aubameyang very seriously. The market for strikers is expensive and they need a scorer. The Chelsea player could be a very good solution for one season, but the club is still working on signing a young striker.
The priority target is Vitor Roc, although his price tag is much higher and he is being pursued by other clubs in Europe. If they can’t sign him at a good price, Aubameyang’s chances of coming back will increase.
