CHELSEA have reportedly rejected a bid for flop Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Turkey.
The Gabon international has had a tough time at Stamford Bridge since joining Chelsea on a two-year deal from Barcelona last summer.
After only managing one Premier League goal last season, the 34-year-old looks like he could be on his way out.
But Chelsea aren’t going to let him leave easily as they are reported to have turned down a bid from Galatasaray for the forward.
According to The Telegraph Chelsea have rejected the offer from the Turkish giants as they hope to get a fee for Aubameyang.
The former Arsenal striker is said to be the subject of interest from Saudi Arabia too, but wants to decide his own future rather than have the Blues decide it for him.
