OM: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Chelsea) Closing in on Marseille Move
Marseille is reportedly getting closer to securing the services of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. According to L'Equipe, the Gabonese striker could sign a three-year contract with Marseille, pending the outcome of discussions between his representatives and Chelsea. The Blues, who are looking to offload him, may not necessarily demand a transfer fee for the move.
After giving up on Iliman Ndiaye, Sheffield United's forward, Marseille is expected to quickly bounce back in the transfer market, and in a spectacular manner. L'Equipe reports that the club's officials are in advanced negotiations with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is no longer a key part of Chelsea's plans. A three-year contract is said to be on the table for the 34-year-old Gabonese international, who is seeking a new challenge. On the other hand, RMC Sport suggests a two-year deal with an option for a third season.
So, what is missing for the transfer of the former Saint-Étienne, Dortmund, and Arsenal striker? Still under contract with Chelsea, "PEA" is waiting to see how discussions between his representatives and the club unfold. Chelsea may decide to release him by terminating his contract, which would allow Marseille to avoid paying a transfer fee, similar to Alexis Sanchez's arrival from Inter in the summer of 2022.
Later in the evening, journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed a contractual agreement between Marseille and Aubameyang until 2026. The Marseille club is even reportedly optimistic about a positive outcome in this matter. "Negotiations with Chelsea will not be difficult," he assures. The puzzle is therefore continuing to take shape, one piece at a time.
