Thomas Tuchel has described his time with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as a 'pleasure' during a press conference ahead of Chelsea's clash with Tottenham on Sunday.
Tuchel worked alongside the 33-year-old striker at Borussia Dortmund between 2015 and 2018, with Aubameyang playing a central role in the team that lifted the DFB-Portal trophy in 2016.
Though he refused to comment on the speculation linking Aubameyang with a summer move to Stamford Bridge, Tuchel explained the positive relationship that he enjoyed with the Barcelona forward:
"This is totally separate from anything that is happening now, but I enjoyed a lot working with Auba while I was at Dortmund,
'Some players stay your players because you were very very close and Aubameyang is one of these players.
