EPL: Aubameyang is in Trouble –Tuchel

Chelsea boss, Thomas Tuchel has reacted to Arsenal’s decision of stripping Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of the team’s captain armband.

The former Paris Saint-Germain coach said he felt sorry for the Gabon International, adding that he’s in problem.

Recall, Tuchel had once been Aubameyang’s coach at Borrusia Dortmund and he had always adapted of Aubameyang’s attitude

That said, he believes Mikel Arteta’s judgement on the 32-year-old is not expressive of his character.

Hence, the 48-year-old coach reportedly planned to offer support to the former Borussia Dortmund’s star.

Aubameyang was relieved of his role as the Gunners’ captain on Tuesday after being accused of disciplinary breach.

Tuchel told reporters: “I will, I will at some point. But, you know, I don’t want to also disturb [him].”

“I think he was a very important player for me and we had a very close relationship until today. When we meet it’ s still always very, very nice.”

“I can only say the best things about Auba as a player and as a person.”

“I feel sorry for him that he’ s in trouble. This is not where he should be with his kind of quality and the positive character that he has – and I still believe in that.”

“But I’m not involved, and I’m not involved in what’ s going on at his club now, and for this I also want to show my respect [to Arsenal] and not be involved and not judge what is right and wrong.”

“I just have my picture and my relationship with Auba and this is not affected by that.”
