Newcastle United could hand Chelsea a major boost in Todd Boehly's mission to sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The 33-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Barcelona amid the Spanish giants' well-documented - and ongoing - financial troubles.
football.london understand that the Blues are considering a move for the former Arsenal striker, with Thomas Tuchel looking to refurbish his strike force before the summer transfer window slams shut at the end of the month.
