Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Barcelona have demanded Marcos Alonso from Chelsea in a part-exchange deal involving Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.<\/p>\n

Barcelona and Chelsea have discussed using Alonso in a deal to sign Aubameyang.<\/p>\n

Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel, is desperate to bolster his attack line following the departure of Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner this summer.<\/p>\n

Tuchel is keen to sign Aubameyang, who joined Barcelona in the January transfer window when his Arsenal contract was terminated.<\/p>\n

Barcelona are also keen to sell Aubameyang following Robert Lewandowski\u2019s arrival as the Gabonese international has slid down the pecking order in Xavi\u2019s squad.<\/p>\n

The Catalan club are desperate to raise some funds to ease their financial problems this season.<\/p>\n

The Blaugrana are seeking around \u00a321m for Aubameyang, who is open to returning to London.<\/p>\n

But Barcelona have also shown vast interest in signing Alonso and the Daily Mail is now reporting that discussions have taken place between both clubs over a part-exchange deal.<\/p>\n

However, It\u2019s unclear how much Chelsea would value Alonso in negotiations, but he joined the Blues in a \u00a326millon deal back in 2016 under Antonio Conte\u2019s regime.<\/p>\n

Alonso is also keen on returning to Spain, while Tuchel is keen on working with Aubameyang, who he coached during their time together at Dortmund.<\/p>\n
