Marseille are reportedly keen on signing Chelsea striker, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, as the Gabon international looks to leave Stamford Bridge this summer.
Aubameyang has attracted a host of interest as his future at Chelsea looks set to come to an end this summer, despite a poor season for himself and the club.
The Blues had a miserable campaign, as they finished 12th in the Premier League and recorded the lowest points tally in the club’s history.
Former Brighton manager, Graham Potter, was hired in September and was sacked after just six-months following a poor run of results.
His replacement, Frank Lampard, was unable to improve life at Stamford Bridge and the Blues ended the season without a single victory over any side in the top six.
A move away from the club looks inevitable for the former Arsenal star and Ligue 1 side, Marseille, are keen on signing the striker, despite major interest from Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia has seen football become more and more popular over recent years, with one of the best players throughout history, Cristiano Ronaldo, signing in January this year.
This summer window has seen a plethora of elite players follow suit, as N’Golo Kante, Karim Benzema, Roberto Firmino and Edouard Mendy have all moved to the ever-progressing country.
A move to Saudi Arabia would make sense for Aubameyang, as injuries have impacted his chances of competing at the highest level.
However, Marseille are keen on signing the Gabon international, as the French side look to push PSG to the title next season.
