Thomas Tuchel: “I really enjoyed working with Aubameyang. We were very close.”
Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel speaks of his ‘close relationship’ with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang amidst reports linking him with a move to Chelsea.
“I enjoyed working with him a lot, it was a pleasure. I’ve never had any issue. Some players stay your players, as you are very close. Auba is one of them players. Even when we played Arsenal, straight away it was a close bond”, – told Tuchel to reporters.
Meanwhile, according to Relevo, the Catalan team want £21 million for Aubameyang, while the Blues are willing to pay a fixed amount of a maximum £10.5 million.
Chelsea are desperate to sign a striker to replace departed Timo Werner and Romelu Lukaku this summer.
