Gabonese star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has disclosed that playing for Chelsea was his biggest mistake in his football career.
Recall that Aubameyang joined the Blues in September 2022, in a £10.3m deal from Barcelona.
Speaking to Canal+, the Gabonese striker stated that he joined Chelsea beacuse he wanted to reunite with Thomas Tuchel.
“That was a big mistake going there. It was a big mistake.”
“At that time I had a bad moment in Barcelona. I had a home break-in and Barca needed to sell a player — me or Memphis Depay — and the only thing that was on the table was Chelsea. So I said OK, for my family, I will move away, even if it’s Chelsea.
“I was thinking maybe it will be okay, Olivier Giroud went from Arsenal to Chelsea and he had no problems, but for me it was different.”
