Aubameyang opens Atleti door

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang suggests he could replace Antoine Griezmann at Atletico Madrid. “They’re looking for players, anything can happen…”

Aubameyang had long been linked with Real Madrid, but the Borussia Dortmund striker – whose relationship with the German side has strained – admitted Los Blancos were “no longer my wish”, instead switching his attentions to Atleti.

“Renewal with Dortmund? I haven’t signed one, it’s not true,” he told Ouest-france.

“The market is open, also for me. Real Madrid? That’s no longer my wish, I don’t think about it much anymore.

“Atleti? Everyone knows that they’re looking for players around the world. I think Griezmann could leave and a lot can happen. Anything can happen.”
