Chelsea and Barcelona have reached an agreement for the transfer of Pierre Aubameyang, a transfer fee of £10 million plus Marcos Alonso to Barcelona, Aubameyang will fly to London once the paperwork is ready.
In addition to Aubameyang who moved to Chelsea, Barcelona have also released Sergino Dest to AC Milan on loan with an option to buy around €20 million. Sergino Dest will soon fly to Milan to finalize the signing of the contract.
Probably Chelsea agreed to this transfer under the influence of the latest results in the Premier League and decided that it would be better Aubameyang to be a forward than to play without attackers at all. It's probably a good deal for both clubs - Chelsea are getting a much-anticipated boost in attack and Barcelona are seriously improving their budget in terms of reducing spending on players.
Taking Aubameyang on board for Chelsea is a good move in my opinion. In the attacking department, Chelsea have had a few issues.
I think Pierre Emerick Aubameyang is going to be able to improve some of those issues. The performance of Aubameyang in Barcelona was very good.
The team will certainly do well with him on board, and I think he will be a valuable asset to the team.

Excited news transfer update at the deadline day because Barcelona and Chelsea have reach agreement with Aubameyang transfer fee £10 million plus Marcos Alonso. Chelsea want to give Marcos Alonso for reaching agreement to get Aubameyang because have get replacement with Alonso on left defender position with Marc Cucurella transfer from Brighton Albion. Chelsea need with central forward right now and Aubameyang become solution on central forward for Chelsea. I think could be over transfer activities for Chelsea depend with deadline day few hours later and Chelsea have made completed transfers activities.
There is no doubt that this is good news for Barcelona as they are getting both a free player and also a large sum of money in return.
The addition of Marcos Alonso to Barcelona will be a good one.
Both Barcelona and Chelsea will be pleased with this news as Chelsea will also be receiving an attacker who is still capable of performing at a high level.
