According to reports Chelsea will be given the chance to sign Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in January.
Aubameyang has scored 17 goals in 19 appearances so far this season for Dortmund but the forward has been openly criticised for his indiscipline this season.
Chelsea and a number of top European clubs are said to have been put on alert that the 28-year-old striker will be available during the winter transfer window.
