Chelsea flop Aubameyang agrees shock transfer to ‘Arsenal retirement home’ as fans stunned by contract length

PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG has reportedly agreed a deal to join Marseille.

The striker is out of favour at Chelsea and had been expected to leave the club this summer.

He made just 15 Premier League appearances for the Blues after joining last year, scoring once.

And now he has agreed a three-year contract with Marseille, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Chelsea are keen to sell and that means agreeing a fee will reportedly be relatively straightforward.

Arsenal fans have ridiculed the proposed move and labelled Marseille a “retirement home” for former Gooners.

Former Arsenal stars Alexis Sanchez and Matteo Guendouzi play for the Ligue Un club while Nuno Tavares spent last season on loan there.

Ex-Gooner Sead Kolasinac also had a year at Marseille before leaving this summer.

One fan commented on Aubameyang’s deal saying: “Where former Arsenal players go to retire…”

Another added: “Wow.. from Alexis to Aubameyang… Marseille and finished players ”
