Fabrizio Romano has sounded out a big claim that Chelsea have sealed personal terms with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ahead of Thursday’s deadline day.
The Barcelona frontman is a top target this summer at Stamford Bridge with the Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel seeking reinforcements to freshen his misfiring front line for the new season.

Despite speculation that Aubameyang remains indifferent on a move to the English capital from Barcelona, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has revealed that personal terms have been struck between Chelsea and the player’s camp.
The 33-year-old Aubameyang is keen to play in the Champions League which is something that would not be offered to him should he join his other long-standing suitors in the market in Manchester United.
Chelsea have sought to ring in changes to their attacking lineup with Tuchel giving the nod for the sales of Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner earlier in the summer and splashing the cash on England international Raheem Sterling to overhaul his ranks.
