It’s July 2023 all over again. Not because Declan Rice or Jude Bellingham are on the move again, but because Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is set to return to Olympique Marseille! Two years ago, he arrived from Chelsea and now comes to Stade Velodrome after a one-year spell at Saudi Al-Qadsiah.🚨🇬🇦 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 | Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (36) to Marseille. Here we go!
