Meeting in the next hours, scheduled since last Sunday - main focus will be on the personal terms. also, Xavi pushing to keep Auba is another reason."

He would also be reunited with manager Thomas Tuchel, after the pair previously worked together at Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund.

After Chelsea's scoring struggles to open the Premier League season, it should be no surprise manager Thomas Tuchel wanted his ex-Borussia Dortmund scorer ...

Over the course of the completed 2018/19 and 2019/20 campaigns, Aubameyang scored 44 goals. Sure, he could add to the sense of turbulence that has been present at Stamford Bridge since Chelsea's change of ownership this year, but Sterling's match-winning brace against Leicester City on Aug. But think back to the Aubameyang who arrived during the chaotic final days of Arsene Wenger's reign and you find a player who hit the ground running in 2017/18. 27 marked the first time a Chelsea forward had found the net in 2022/23. But not for the first time in his career, Aubameyang's prolific performances were overshadowed by concerns over his attitude and how things ended. It will be easy for Premier League fans to assume a player who did little to curry favour around the time of his Arsenal exit has once again shown himself to be yesterday's man. He scored 10 in 13 league outings after joining from Borussia Dortmund mid-season, and his record over the next two full seasons, up to and including that fateful contract, was sensational. If we assess his return in terms of goals per 90 minutes, Aubameyang's average of 0.91 at Barcelona placed him fifth behind Kylian Mbappe, Moussa Dembele, Karim Benzema and Christopher Nkunku in the top divisions. From that group of elite marksmen, only Aguero (106.35) could better Aubameyang’s record of 133.39 minutes per goal. But Barca were in a state of financial turmoil off the pitch and still taking their early tentative steps under returning hero and head coach Xavi on it. When that galactico emerges in the form of Robert Lewandowski, someone like Aubameyang essentially becomes Joan Laporta's latest economic lever. After moving to Camp Nou last season, Aubameyang scored 11 La Liga goals in 13 starts and 17 appearances overall.

PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG is poised to complete a move to Chelsea before the transfer deadline.

A rejuvenated squad is yet to translate onto the pitch, however, with Tuchel overseeing just two wins in the first five games of the season. Although his exploits in north London slowed down towards the end of his spell, he hit the ground running after joining Barca back in February with 11 goals in 17 La Liga outings to round off the campaign. Juventus midfielder Denis Zakaria is also on his way to Stamford Bridge on an initial loan deal after he completed a medical in Italy. Aubameyang was pounced on by reporters as he arrived in London to complete the final details of his move from Barcelona. The former Borussia Dortmund and Saint-Etienne forward kept things brief as his entourage attempted to block the camera from filming his arrival. The 33-year-old left the Gunners a matter of months ago after a spat with manager [Mikel Arteta](/latest/mikel-arteta), and he could make them pay for shipping him out of north London by hitting form for their local rivals.

Whether or not the club made the right decision with Aubameyang now at one of their apparent direct rivals for Champions League qualification. Chelsea will welcome Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as a new player this summer less than nine months after he left Arsenal to join Barcelona. Lastly, Aubameyang will make his Emirates Stadium return this season. Whereas Arsenal would have had to wait for a potential Champions League failure from Barcelona to see the Blaugrana drop into the Europa League for a meeting, now a Premier League clash will guarantee it.

Leeds did keep going and eventually announced the signing of Leeds landed Italian forward Wilfried Gnonto on a five-year deal from Swiss Super League champions FC Zurich, for an undisclosed fee. Liverpool made a late move with the signing of Arthur Melo on loan from Juventus for the remainder of the season. I have some unfinished business with the Premier League so it’s good to be back and really exciting.” Brighton confirmed the signing of midfielder Billy Gilmour, 21, from Chelsea on a four-year deal. I’ve spoken to the gaffer and it feels like a great fit for me, and I can’t wait to get started.” Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka also joined United on a season-long loan with the option to make the move permanent, to provide competition for David De Gea. He has put pen to paper on a contract that runs until 2027, with the option of an additional year.

Chelsea have completed the signing of former Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Barcelona. Former Gunners skipper Aubameyang, who was frozen out ...

His departure is the second transaction of the summer between Brighton and Chelsea, with Spanish full-back Marc Cucurella moving to London from the south coast in a £60m deal last month. Gilmour, who starred for Scotland in Euro 2020, endured a disappointing season on loan at Norwich last year and had fallen down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge. Former Gunners skipper Aubameyang, who was frozen out of Arsenal last January after falling out with boss Mikel Arteta, joins after just six months at the Camp Nou.

The signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, for £10m, from Barcelona on transfer deadline day provides a firm full stop on the answer. Chelsea have spent ...

"As good as Sterling is, if they want to be competitive with the very best, they have to score 80 or 90 goals or more. He has scored 68 goals since February 2018 in the league, the fifth best of any player during that time frame. Aubameyang may now be five years older, but Tuchel has gambled that the scoring touch is still there; his stats at Barca indicate it absolutely is. Those five strikers cost Chelsea more than £200m in combined transfer and loan fees. For all the hundreds of millions of pounds spent by Chelsea in the summer, goals remain an issue. A key reason Chelsea have signed Aubameyang is his strong relationship with Tuchel. Early season defeats by Leeds and Southampton - the latter in which they played Sterling and Kai Havertz as a front two - have exacerbated this problem. They don't have at the moment. In the Premier League he struck at a rate of better than one goal every two games. However, amid the La Liga club's well-documented financial struggles, they have been forced to sell in order to register all of their summer signings. What was problematic was the club's malaise around him over four years, slipping out of European competition under Unai Emery amid dressing room discord. The manager knows him well and knows his character.

Chelsea have been struggling with an age-old issue during the German's tenure - converting chances. Sky Sports News reported early on Deadline Day that Chelsea were closing in on an agreement with Barcelona for Aubameyang. That partnership ended when Dortmund sacked Tuchel at the end of the 2016/17 season and Aubameyang joined Arsenal in the winter window of 2018 for a then-club-record £60m - hitting the ground running with 10 league goals in just 12 starts. Aubameyang has been given permission to fly to the UK for his medical and to finalise the deal, with personal terms not expected to be a problem. While the Gabon international created headlines for the right and wrong reasons during his time at Arsenal, Aubameyang simply produced goals at Borussia Dortmund under Tuchel - with 56 Bundesliga goals in 63 appearances across two campaigns.

I’m really happy and highly motivated to continue living my dream on the pitch and giving my all in a Liverpool shirt.” Leicester have made a signing – only their second of the window. Will Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang be a blue by the end of the day? He can also play in different positions, which is always a good thing, and I am pleased to welcome him as part of our squad.” Meanwhile, Leicester’s Youri Tielemans has been the subject of rumours but he is also in action at the King Power Stadium. “I’m happy to be back in the Premier League again.

The transfer window is closed. Chelsea have brought Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang back to the Premier League, and will bring in Juve's Denis Zakaria.

He had been linked with Real Madrid this summer, and it would reportedly take an offer of at least €115 million for the Serie A champions to consider parting ways with him. It is reported that the Blues have turned their attention to the 23-year-old Serie A star, after they failed with an enquiry to land Paris Saint-Germain and Brazil international forward Neymar.
