Premier League target Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang claims he would only leave Borussia Dortmund for one club… Real Madrid
Manchester City and Co dealt a massive blow as in-demand Bundesliga striker suggests he'd never make England switch
PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG has dealt a major blow to Manchester City and United by claiming: The only club that could lure me away from Dortmund is Real Madrid.
The Borussia Dortmund forward, 27, has been a target for both Manchester clubs for a year now, with new bosses Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho keen to bolster their attacking ranks.
However, Aubameyang looks set to stay in the Bundesliga, after claiming he would only leave to join the Galacticos, before adding it wouldn't be any time soon.
Speaking to German news outlet ZDF, Aubameyang said: "The only club that could lure me away from Dortmund is Real Madrid...
"But now is not the right time."
Gabon star Aubameyang is currently away with German side Dortmund at the International Champions Cup in China alongside City and United.
And his Dortmund side thumped Mourinho's men 4-1 - himself scoring the second goal in the rout.
BVB have been stubbornly hanging on to their star forward - with stars such as Mats Hummels and Henrikh Mkhitaryan already jumping ship this summer - slapping a £65million price-tag on their man.
The figure proved to be a stumbling block for Guardiola's City, however they were still confident they could land Aubameyang.
