Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang left a fond memory of his short but productive time at FC Barcelona, both for its sporting performance and for its economic benefit. After arriving at Camp Nou from Arsenal in January 2022, in the middle of the season the 33-year-old Gabonese attacker scored 13 goals in 24 games, an important contribution in confirming the Barca team’s qualification for the 2022-23 Champions League group stage. His fine work in the Spanish League earned him renewed interest from the Premier League in his signing, which is why Chelsea paid €12 million for his move last summer. Barça agreed due to their need to balance the accounts and for signing the Golden Boot, Robert Lewandowski. Aubameyang’s star, however, seems to have faded again in England. The former English international is too much Paul Mersonin his column on sports in the skyconsidering that the ex culé phase at Stamford Bridge is “over”.
After scoring three goals in 16 games in all competitions, Aubameyang has not been at his best and it has been suggested that Chelsea are considering opening the door for him to come in.

Aubameyang’s memory at Barça is clearly more positive. By the way his departure is not for football reasons, because there is nothing more to like Xavi HernandezCulé coach, than having Aubameyang as a relief for Lewandowski in a busy season.
