The Bundesliga club’s CEO doesn’t expect striker to push for a transfer in the near future but won’t rule out negotiations if he does

Borussia Dortmund may be compelled to consider an offer from Real Madrid for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang if he pushes for a move, says club CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke.
Aubameyang, 27, has often been linked with Madrid in recent seasons and has publicly expressed his admiration for the heavyweight La Liga club. Naijabet.com
The prolific Gabon international striker, who rescued a point in a 1-1 Bundesliga draw at home to Hertha Berlin on Friday, is a prized asset at Signal Iduna Park, particularly since the departure of Robert
Lewandowski to Bayern Munich in 2014.

 

Having seen a succession of star players lured away by the riches on offer elsewhere, Watzke knows Dortmund will have a battle on their hands if they are to retain Aubameyang in the face of interest from the Spanish capital.

But the CEO is adamant the club are in a strong position and claimed the forward has not been agitating for a move.
