Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang posted an Instagram story about watching the first leg of the Copa del Rey Semi-Final, which could be a potential hint towards his interest in returning to Barcelona as per the report from SPORT.

The former Blaugrana striker is reportedly not happy with his current situation at Chelsea and expected to part ways with the London-based club come the next summer with Barcelona being one of the possible destinations.

The Catalans are also eying to sign a striker, especially after the exit of Memphis Depay in January and Aubameyang would be an ideal profile to provide depth in the frontline, especially in replacing Robert Lewandowski in the striking position when needed.

Last season, despite just spending half a year at Camp Nou, he scored 13 goals in 24 games, so his return would add an experienced goalscoring asset to the team. Moreover, his mentality and attitude was always positive in his Blaugrana days, which, combined with his effectiveness in front of the goal, made him a fan favorite for the Camp Nou faithful.
