Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to join Tianjin Quanjian on a record-breaking deal – Reports

Borussia Dortmund superstar Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is on the verge of a record-breaking transfer move to Tianjin Quanjian this summer, according to reports in Germany.

SportBild claims the Gabon striker is set to join Chinese Super League Tianjin Quanjian for a fee of around €70 million, which exceeds Dortmund’s requirement by €10 million.

It’s understood Aubameyang, who was also on the radar of Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool, could earn a lucrative salary of €30 million a year with the Chinese Super League side.

The 2017 Bundesliga top scorer is under contract until 2020, but has made no secret of his desire to experience himself in other leagues.
