He could follow the same path as his recent teammates N'Golo Kante, Kalidou Koulibaly and Edouard Mendy, who have all gone to Saudi Arabia

Saudi side Al-Ettifaq are reportedly interested in a move for Chelsea and Gabon striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The Saudi Pro League slot, now managed by Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard, could offer the 33-year-old a route out of the Blues. Thus, Aubameyang could be set to follow the eight already departed players, with The Telegraph reporting he is of interest to Al-Ettifaq. They finished seventh last season, and Gerrard's chances of success could be boosted if Aubameyang signs, and he would be the latest forward to complete such a move.

Should Aubameyang leave Chelsea for Saudi Arabia, he would join the same league as three of his fellow Blues teammates. N'Golo Kante, Kalidou Koulibaly and Edouard Mendy have all completed moves, with Hakim Ziyech also potentially heading the same way.

Since signing from Barcelona last year, Aubameyang has scored just three goals in 21 appearances for Chelsea.

All of his strikes came in October, with his first against Crystal Palace and the other two both home and away to AC Milan.
