Chelsea acquired the services of Pierre Emerick Aubameyang from Barcelona. He had worked before with Thomas Tuchel during their times at Borrussia Dortmund. The Manager knows him very well and he knows what he is capable of doing on the pitch.
There are very many things which the Gabonese international player will add to Chelsea. First of all, he will add more strength in the forward line and the striking department. The Blues do not have a reknown striker and therefore he will be the focal point of the team in the forward line.
Thomas Tuchel has been heavily relying on either Raheem Sterling or Kai Havertz who thrive well in the wings as his centre forwards. The arrival of Aubameyang may now give them the opportunity to play in the positions that they are well conversant with so that they can thrive well and unleash their full potential.
Pierre Emerick Aubameyang will also give Thomas Tuchel more options because he is a versatile player who has not only specialised in one area but another one too. He is not only a central striker but also a winger. During his time at Arsenal, Mikel Arteta used to deploy him on the wings occasionally, in order to accommodate Alexandre Lacazette in the central role.
The Gabonese international player will also add more squad depth in the team. He will give the Manager the option of choosing the players who should play in different games according the strength of the opponents and the completion for example the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup among others.
