The striker is set to move to Chelsea but a fee is still not agreed

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be sold by Barcelona. The internal debate over the forward's future is over and the coaching staff have agreed to activate the operation. The decisions is made. Aubameyang will leave this month, although it may be a few more days until any deal is completed.

Barça are negotiating with Chelsea and an agreement is not proving easy. Even though everything indicates they will come to an understanding, there are still discrepancies. Barça want over €25 million fore the player, an amount Chelsea will only reach with the inclusion of Marcos Alonso.

But Barça want the two deals to be separate. Chelsea wants them to be concluded together and hope to increase the value of Alonso. Barça want to sign the left-back for €10m.

'Timing'

Said discrepancy is delaying an agreement and Barça will have to maintain their patience, even if closing the deal would allow them to register Jules Kounde. Barça have until Sunday to have the defender ready for the game against Real Valladolid at Camp Nou.
