Fabrizio Romano is reporting that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (34) is currently undergoing a medical ahead of a move to Olympique de Marseille.
As reported by the Italian journalist on Wednesday, the Chelsea forward had agreed to join Marseille. He will join on a free transfer after falling out of favour at Chelsea. He was brought in by Thomas Tuchel last summer, but the German manager was sacked soon after.
The former Saint-Étienne and AS Monaco forward is now set to return to Ligue 1 with Les Phocéens. The Gabonese forward landed in Germany yesterday and is today undergoing his medical. Upon the completion of that medical, he will sign a three-year deal, tying him to OM until the summer of 2026.
Aubameyang will become the latest player to depart Stamford Bridge in a summer of great change at Chelsea. He will also become the third high-profile player to arrive at the Velodrome this summer following the arrivals of Renan Lodi and Geoffrey Kondogbia from Atletico Madrid.
