The Blues are keen to add another forward to their ranks after the departure of Timo Werner.
Barcelona reportedly want a €25m fee to sell Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is among Chelsea’s transfer targets this summer.
Barcelona have added the likes of Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski to their ranks this summer.
A well-equipped attacking line at Camp Nou will most likely limit Aubameyang’s game time this season. But the Catalans are not willing to let him go for a low price.
According to Spanish source Relevo, Barcelona want at least €25m for Aubameyang’s possible transfer.
It would be a great deal for Barcelona, who signed the Gabonese star for free last winter. The Catalans would also free up more space on their wage list, which is crucial for registering Jules Kounde’s contract.
Chelsea saw Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner leave Stamford Bridge this summer. The Blues made failed bids to sign Lewandowski and Raphinha, who both ended up joining Barcelona.
The Blues have shown interest in signing Aubameyang. However, it is not clear whether they would want to meet Barcelona’s demands for the former Arsenal star.
Barcelona also have Memphis Depay on their sell list. However, they won’t reportedly sell both Aubameyang and Depay in the same transfer window.
