PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG has reportedly agreed a deal to join Marseille.
The striker is out of favour at Chelsea and had been expected to leave the club this summer.
He made just 15 Premier League appearances for the Blues after joining last year, scoring once.
And now he has agreed a three-year contract with Marseille, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Chelsea are keen to sell and that means agreeing a fee will reportedly be relatively straightforward.
Arsenal fans have ridiculed the proposed move and labelled Marseille a "retirement home" for former Gooners.
