Tianjin Quanjin are ready to pull out of a move for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang amid concerns he wants to join Chelsea.
Borussia Dortmund insist they have yet to receive a formal offer for the prolific Gabon striker but intermediaries are understood to have offered Chelsea the chance to sign him for £60million.
AC Milan also plan to hold further talks with the 28-year-old's entourage as they continue to recruit some of Europe's best talent in a complete overhaul of last season's squad.
Dortmund have given his agents until July 26 to find a deal when the Bundesliga club begin their pre-season programme.
