The Barça striker could be out for several weeks, according to the British press
In the violent robbery he suffered at his home in the early hours of Sunday to Monday, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang suffered a broken jaw as revealed by ‘The Athletic’, so it could be several weeks off. Barça has not reported, for the moment, on the physical condition of the striker, who is still negotiating his departure to Chelsea in the last hours of the summer market. The mishap would not influence the departure of the Gabonese to the Premier.

The Barça club needs to find ways out, be it Aubameyang, Memphis or Frenkie de Jong, to be able to give Xavi the sides he asks for. Both on the right wing (Bellerín or Meunier are the great candidates) or on the left. Mark Alonzo, the Chelsea defender has been packing his bags for days to come to the Camp Nou.
Aubameyang’s transfer to Chelsea is still not finalized, now also conditioned by that fractured jaw, which could keep him out for several weeks. There is no defined period of absence because Barça has not confirmed the consequences of that robbery with violence that took place in his house in Castelldefels, the second that he has suffered since he signed for Barça last January.
