Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang pushing to leave Chelsea on own terms as star rejects £6m move

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's ill-fated spell at Chelsea looks set to come to an end this summer.

The 34-year-old was signed for a reported £12.1m a year ago by Thomas Tuchel, who had worked closely with Aubameyang at Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund. However, he made just one appearance under Tuchel before he was sacked and Aubameyang only featured 20 more times in all competitions for the Blues under Graham Potter, Bruno Saltor and Frank Lampard.

He also managed just one Premier League goal and was cut from Chelsea's Champions League squad in February, despite featuring in every group game. As a result, Aubameyang is expected to be one of several big name departures from Stamford Bridge this summer as Chelsea look to revamp their squad.
