Chelsea allowed Romelu Lukaku return to Inter Milan on a loan deal and sold Timo Werner to RB Leipzig this summer.
The duo’s exits have made the Blues look for a signing before the window closes and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been pushed forward as the main target.
On Wednesday, multiple reports coming out Spain said Chelsea are the club that want the Barcelona player the most.
It was also stated the option to raise funds through the 33-year-old’s sale ‘seduces’ the La Liga side.
El Chiringuito journalist Jose Alvarez Haya states the possibility of the Gabon international leaving the Camp Nou in this window is not yet closed, and the Premier League could be his next destination.
💰 "El BARÇA VENDERÍA a AUBAMEYANG por 30 millones".
👉 "Está esperando a la oferta del CHELSEA por esa cantidad"
