Chelsea outcast Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang tells former Barcelona team-mates he wants to RETURN to the Nou Camp with the forward out of favour at Stamford Bridge... but he is not a priority signing for Xavi

Chelsea striker Pierre Emerick Aubameyang has been in touch with former team-mates at Barcelona telling them he is keen to return.

Aubameyang has endured a torrid time at Stamford Bridge but is not Barca's priority this summer.

Chelsea, who have put a deal in place for yet another winger - Benfica's 18-year-old Diego Moreira - on a free this summer, are continuing to hold discussions over more additions but will inevitably let Aubameyang go.

They have held talks over popular Barcelona midfielder Gavi, who will also become a free agent this summer, if his contract isn't registered and have taken soundings over Rafael Leao's situation at AC Milan in the past week.
