Watzke: Dortmund would consider €80m for Aubameyang

The Gabon international is constantly linked with a move away from the club and the chief executive admits he is good enough to go to a bigger team

Borussia Dortmund chief executive Hans-Joachim Watzke says the club would have to consider an offer of €80 million for star striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The prolific forward, who is set to re-join his club following Gabon's elimination from the Africa Cup of Nations on home soil, has been regularly linked with a move to one of Europe's financial heavyweights.

And while Dortmund have insisted they are not under pressure to part with the 27-year-old, Watzke has acknowledged a certain sum would prompt serious consideration within the club's hierarchy.
