Borussia Dortmund want to replace Chelsea & AC Milan target with Arsenal star

13 lug 2017

Borussia Dortmund are looking for replacements for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who is emerging as a top transfer target of both Chelsea and AC Milan. The Bundesliga giants have been offered € 80 million from Tianjin Quanjian but the Chinese transfer window shuts tomorrow and Aubameyang’s move to China is not likely to happen.

Both Chelsea and AC Milan are now being linked with a move for the Gabon star who, however, is not going to leave Germany for an offer below € 80 million.

According to The Mirror, Borussia Dortmund have already prepared a transfer shortlist they can use if Aubameyang leaves the club.

The British paper states Arsenal star Olivier Giroud is being added in the Germans’ shopping list. The France striker could be on his way out of the Emirates Stadium in the summer given that his compatriot Alexandre Lacazette will become the Gunners’ main striker. Giroud is also being linked with West Ham and Marseille.
