Premier League clubs on alert as Aubameyang seeks exit

Matt Stead

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang admits that he is “still reflecting” on his future at Borussia Dortmund.

Aubameyang has been linked with a move away from Germany for the last couple of seasons.

The striker has impressed for Dortmund, scoring 125 goals in 192 games since joining in 2013, but he now accepts that his time at the club could be coming to an end.

The 28-year-old has been linked with Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United since the start of 2016, and each club could contend with Chinese Super League sides for his signature.

He told Radio Montecarlo Italy: “I am still reflecting on whether I should leave or not.

“This club and these fans are incredible, but if I want to grow, I feel I need to leave.

“This is the question I keep on asking myself — and I don’t have an answer.

“I need time to think about it. If I want to grow, I surely need to leave this summer.

“I am 28 and I need to grow.

“If I leave, it will only be somewhere I would play regularly.”
