‘I’m not going to America.’
Chelsea’s veteran striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is expected to turn down a loan offer from LA FC of the American Major League Soccer (MLS).
Aubameyang is having a bleak day at Chelsea this season. Last summer, he became a free agent, left FC Barcelona and moved to Chelsea, returning to the Premier League. The biggest reason he chose Chelsea was the existence of manager Thomas Tuchel.
However, after Aubameyang arrived, coach Tuchel was suddenly sacked. After the appointment of manager Graham Porter, Aubameyang was completely pushed out of the competition for the starting position.
Accordingly, LA FC sent suggestions to Aubameyang. He was going to sign a short-term lease until this July. LA FC has pointed out Aubameyang as a replacement for ‘Golf King’ Gareth Bale, who recently announced his retirement.
However, the British media ‘Daily Mail’ reported that LA FC was worried that it would not be able to convince Aubameyang, and that Aubameyang, who had returned to England less than a year ago, was reluctant to go to the United States on a short-term loan. 바카라
Former team Barcelona considered the return of Aubameyang in the January transfer window, but were unable to move due to financial problems. AC Milan and Atlético Madrid also showed interest, but FIFA rules prevented a player from playing for more than one team in a season.
Aubameyang has signed a contract with Chelsea until the summer of 2024, and has only three goals and one assist in 18 appearances for Chelsea.
