Chelsea begin 'serious negotiations' for £95,000 per-week star to solve attacking problems as transfer window nears deadline.


 The Blues have intensified their negotiations for the £95,000 per-week Barcelona attacker as the transfer window closes tomorrow. 

Chelsea have heated up their negotiations with Barcelona for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, per multiple reports. 

This development comes after their defeat to Southampton yesterday, a game which saw the Blues lose 2-1 without proper attacking prowess. 

Recall, Fabrizio Romano had stated that the Blues will continue negotiations with Barcelona today:

As per Football Espãna, Chelsea have intensified talks to sign the 33-year old despite suffering from a 'broken-jaw' following robbery incident at his house. 

 Aubameyang was assaulted in the early hours of Monday morning when a gang broke into his home equipped with firearms and iron bars.Club sources initially said Aubameyang and his wife -- who were handcuffed during the burglary with their kids also inside the property in Castelldefels, just outside of Barcelona -- did not have serious injuries.

But sources have now confirmed as per ESPN that the former Arsenal striker did break his jaw during the break-in and will be out for around three weeks.

As per Marca, Aubameyang earns a weekly fee of £95,000 and Chelsea have made it clear from the start they do not want to pay over €20 million for the forward, while Barca were initially holding out for more than €25m. Aubameyang, 33, arrived only in January on a free transfer from Arsenal, but he has fallen down the pecking order at Camp Nou since the summer signings of Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha.

Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed.

 OPINION: Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed.  The Blues were back in Premier League action on Saturday, and had sealed a 3-0 victory over Wolves at the Bridge.  The game had seen goals come from the Blues' attacking options, something which had rarely been seen in the Tuchel era.  Not just that, there were noticeable changes and improvement in team set up that were not seen under the former German Boss. All of which will be highlighted below.  Firstly, the handing of debut to Chelsea's signing, Carney Chukwuemeka. Graham Potter's choice to hand one of his starlets a debut demonstrates the trust that he has in the young players at Stamford Bridge that can help him through a tricky run. It's harder than it seems to just trust the youth though.  Tuchel struggled to fully implement the pathway desired and was always focused on the here and now, the short term. He felt warmth with experience. Potter already looks to have brough...
