Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in transfer talks with PSG if Chelsea opt to sell striker

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang only signed for Chelsea in the summer but could leave to PSG should the Blues decide to sell.

If Chelsea make the decision to sell Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after signing him this summer he could make a move to PSG, according to reports.

On transfer Deadline Day it was announced that the Gabonese attacker would be joining the Blues on a permanent deal from Barcelona.

He was one of two signings on the final day of the window, with Juventus midfielder Denis Zakaria arriving at the team on loan as well.

The summer was one where the west London side spent a club-record figure with the new ownership team, fronted by Todd Boehly, keen to make their mark.

Having lost Timo Werner to RB Leipzig and Romelu Lukaku on loan to Inter Milan, the Blues were scrambling round for a new lead number nine.

At one point it looked as though Cristiano Ronaldo may have been on his way to Stamford Bridge, but the 37-year-old stayed at Manchester United.

In the end Chelsea opted to sign the Gabonese striker who was reunited with former manager at Borussia Dortmund, Thomas Tuchel.

When playing under the German manager, Aubameyang scored an impressive total of 79 goals.

Speaking about the signing, Tuchel highlighted how special the 33-year-old could be for the Blues.

He said: "Very happy we could make it happen. Everywhere he plays he delivers goals but more importantly he delivers speed and workrate against the ball so it’s a big package he can bring to our group. That’s why we did it.”

Unfortunately things did not go as planned, the forward ended up playing just one game under Tuchel at Chelsea who was sacked after a 1-0 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb.

With former Brighton & Hove Albion manager Graham Potter now at the helm, Aubameyang has found some success in his first few games.

He scored against both Crystal Palace and AC Milan and will be hoping for more goals in a Chelsea shirt.

However, as reported by Foot Mercato the Blues may chose to leave the door open for him to move next summer.

It is believed that talks with the French league leaders PSG for next season have already begun.

They failed to acquire a top striker in the summer so may decide to pursue the forward who already has played in France for Saint-Etienne.

While this news is rather surprising, Chelsea have been monitoring other attackers and looking to get negotiations done as soon as possible.

Leipzig's Christopher Nkunku could be on his way to London, with Chelsea reportedly landing a €60 million plus pre-contract agreement with them for him to join for the 2023-2024 season.
