However, it is known all across the football world how agents use the media to create a suspense of where their client is heading to extract the best possible deal.
Aubameyang has been linked with interest from Old Trafford and reports at the weekend claimed he missed Gabon’s friendly match with Mauritania because he was in the process of changing clubs.

Aubameyang scored 39 goals in 46 games for a Borussia Dortmund side that finished as runners-up to Bayern Munich in both the Bundesliga and the German Cup. Manchester United? MLS? China?

However, he will be a target for Juventus should they sell Paul Pogba.
United have been touted as the favourites to sign Ibrahimovic following Jose Mourinho’s appointment as manager.
