Report: Thomas Tuchel signing has already been told he can leave Chelsea this summer
Reports have claimed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has already been handed the green light to leave Chelsea this summer.
According to the Evening Standard, the striker is already free to leave following a pretty pointless season back in the Premier League.
The campaign for Aubameyang should perhaps have been expected after his first game with the Blues came to an end.
The defeat in the Champions League to Dinamo Zagreb ended up being manager at the time Thomas Tuchel’s final one in charge.
The signing was almost certainly made with the German in mind, given the fact that he had previously worked with the player at Borussia Dortmund.
When Graham Potter arrived, opportunities quickly became less and less clear-cut.
Aubameyang free to leave
It soon appeared as if the two fell out when the manager made the call to substitute Aubameyang off after he hadn’t actually started the match against Manchester City in the Premier League.
It would be hard to say that he deserved much more though.
After scoring in Potter’s first league win against Crystal Palace, he didn’t find the net again domestically.
He was actually left out of the Champions League squad to accommodate three new signings to play in the knockout stages of the competition.
This left future interim manager Frank Lampard frustrated, particularly in the quarter-final against Real Madrid when he needed goals in the second leg to turn things around.
The Blues are almost certain to look to invest in a striker this summer as they attempt to address the very obvious issues that have plagued the in front of goal.
They are reportedly interested in a deal to sign Victor Osimhen, although are under the impression that they will need to smash their transfer record to sign him.
