The Gabonese forward of Barcelona, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyanghas a broken jaw, according to ‘The Athletic’, due to being hit with the butt of a shotgun by one of the thieves who robbed his house in Castelldefels (Barcelona) during the early hours of Monday.
This injury could keep him out for more than a month and could complicate the negotiations to finalize his departure from the Barça team before the transfer market closes tomorrow, Thursday.
Also according to the English media, as a result of this unforeseen event, Chelsea, the club most interested in hiring Aubameyang, would have gone from requesting a transfer to preferring a loan.
The events happened after the league match between the Barça team and Valladolid last Sunday at the Spotify Camp Nou, in which Aubameyang did not play a minute despite being called up.
During the assault, the robbers also attacked his wife, who received another blow to the head. This situation is altering Barcelona’s forecasts when it comes to carrying out its latest operations in this summer market, since it had the money from the transfer of the Gabonese player and the release of his salary to balance the financial ‘Fair Play’ of LaLiga.
