The Gabon international has consistently been linked with a move away from the Westfalenstadion in recent years.

The former Schalke playmaker has endured an indifferent spell with the Bundesliga side, following his big money move in the summer of 2015. Things have turned sour for the German international in Gelsenkirchen, with the midfielder rumoured to have fallen out with the club’s hierarchy.
