TalkSPORT pundit Tony Cascarino thinks Chelsea will ditch Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang subsequent summer time.
Aubameyang joined the Blues from FC Barcelona on deadline day in the summertime switch window.
It was the second deadline day switch of the yr for the Gabonese striker, who left Arsenal in January after being banished from the squad by Gunners boss Mikel Arteta.
His time on the Emirates ended on a really bitter notice after a disciplinary breach noticed him stripped of the captaincy after which made surplus to necessities.
Aubameyang had a good half-season for Barcelona, scoring 13 targets in 24 matches for the La Liga giants.
He has been fairly common for Chelsea, nonetheless, netting three in his opening ten appearances for the Londoners.
Towards Brentford on October 19, head coach Graham Potter didn’t carry Aubameyang off the bench till the 81st minute regardless of the rating degree at 0-0.
The 33-year-old then began the draw towards Manchester United earlier than being dropped for the journey to Brighton and Hove Albion.
Potter is tinkering round and remains to be seeking to discover his strongest XI.
It’s unclear whether or not or not Aubameyang is in that crew, with Armando Broja and Kai Havertz competing for a beginning berth.
Romelu Lukaku is on mortgage at Inter Milan after a disappointing first yr again at Stamford Bridge and his long-term future in London is unsure.
Broja not too long ago penned a brand new long-term contract and Havertz is a participant the membership will doubtless keep trustworthy in.
Aubameyang and Lukaku, then again, might feasibly depart the membership subsequent yr.
And Blues legend Cascarino says he expects Aubameyang to just do that.
“I’m not even positive Aubameyang is a participant that Chelsea might be taking a look at into subsequent season,” he instructed talkSPORT.
“I believe he’ll find yourself taking place what occurred to him at Barcelona. They introduced him to the membership, bought a giant signing then realised fairly rapidly they’ve to maneuver away to a greater striker.
“I believe Chelsea must try this as a soccer membership.
“They may come away from Aubameyang by the top of the season.”
Goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga was substituted at half-time of Chelsea’s 4-1 loss at Brighton on Saturday, and Potter has defined his determination to switch him with Edouard Mendy.
The Spanish goalkeeper has impressed in latest weeks with Mendy sat on the bench.
Along with his aspect 3-0 down after 45 minutes towards his former membership, Potter introduced him off and has revealed it was because of an harm.
He mentioned: “It was the underside of his foot, I don’t realize it’s too early but. He was too dangerous to hold on.
“It’s disappointing for him as a result of he’s in a extremely good second.”
