Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has shed light on his abrupt departure from Chelsea after just one season, citing a series of events that left him feeling disrespected.
The former Arsenal striker, who joined Chelsea in 2022, endured a challenging spell at Stamford Bridge, with his performances failing to meet expectations.
However, Aubameyang has now revealed that being left out of Chelsea’s Champions League squad was a major turning point.

Speaking to The Athletic, he said: “Being omitted from Chelsea’s Champions League squad is when I started to say, ‘OK, this is very disrespectful.’ They tried to send me on loan to America! I said: ‘No chance.’ I felt p***ed off.”
