Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang shone in the Champions League group stage with 2 goals and 2 assists, but he will not participate in the knockout stage.
"Chelsea" has decided not to include one of their key players from the group stage in the roster for the knockout rounds.
According to Telegraph journalist Matt Law, there is a feeling in the London team camp that they are trying to exclude the 33-year-old forward from the club. Currently, the transfer window is open only in Turkey.
P. Aubameyang could have returned to Barcelona in January, but La Liga blocked his return.
"Pierre didn't do anything wrong. Aubameyang just had bad luck, but he will fight for his place until the end of the season," - commented Chelsea head coach Graham Potter on the situation after the match.
The Gabonese player was not registered for yesterday's Premier League match against the Fulham team.
