EKO HOT BLOG reports that Chelsea are reportedly willing to pay €30m for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and they ‘could walk away’ from a deal with FC Barcelona.
The Blues have a chequered history of signing strikers and they are in the market for a new forward following the departures of Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner.
Both failed to live up to expectations at Chelsea after joining the London club for significant fees.
“Chelsea have almost agreed on personal terms with Pierre Aubameyang in the last 24h, but have no intention to pay crazy money to Barcelona. No way to close the deal for €30m.
Chelsea wants to invest around £15m – otherwise they could walk away from the deal. Work in progress,” transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, tweeted on Friday.
Aubameyang only joined Barca in the January window after his contract at the Emirates was terminated.
