Shocking drama entered our safe heaven of fabricated football drama today. Recent reports of a violent assault and home invasion suffered by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
According to Telegraph, “Aubameyang and his wife were struck in the face in front of their children during a violent armed robbery in the early hours of Monday morning” before the armed thieves made off with some jewelry. Reports in Spain indicate that the family “are fine”, staying in a hotel, and are receiving help and counseling from the club.
It might be a bit weird to talk about a football topic from here. But as the Telegraph claim, “Chelsea hope to renew talks” over his signature. The 33-year-old expected to meet with the Barcelona powers that be prior to that to talk things through. Barca refused a £15m part-exchange offer from Chelsea, wanting more money and less Marcos Alonso. Meanwhile, personal terms with Aubameyang himself may or may not be agreed either. The former Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund striker possibly looking for a 3-year deal.
This one might go down to the wire, and the events of the past 24-48 hours have only complicated things — and not just in our comfy little football bubble.
