Chelsea offered Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for £65m?

Premier League champions Chelsea have reportedly been offered the chance to sign Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for £65m this summer.

The 28-year-old has been linked with virtually every major club across Europe over the last year following his performances for the Bundesliga side, which has seen him score 79 goals in 95 appearances across the last two seasons.

In recent weeks it appeared as if the Gabon international was set for a move to the Chinese Super League but according to The Sun, the Blues have now been offered his services in a £65m deal.

Antonio Conte's side have been frustrated in the transfer market this summer, losing out on Romelu Lukaku to Manchester United, with number-one target Alvaro Morata seemingly heading for Real Madrid instead.

Chelsea are in the market for at least one new big hitter up front following the revelation that Diego Costa will not be part of Conte's plans going forward.

The side have made two additions so far this summer - the capture of keeper Willy Caballero on a free from Manchester City and the £34m signing of defender Antonio Rudiger.
