Chelsea forward, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has admitted he would love to return to La Liga and play for Spanish giants, Barcelona this summer.
The Gabon international joined Chelsea on deadline day last summer in a £10m move from Barcelona after spending eight months at the Nou Camp, where he found the net 13 times in 24 appearances.
Aubameyang was offloaded to the west London club with Barcelona desperately looking to raise funds.

The 33-year-old has endured a difficult time since joining Chelsea where he has also failed to live up to expectations, scoring just one goal in 15 league appearances.
He had a rare opportunity to start the derby against his former club, Arsenal on Tuesday, May 2, but had an evening to forget as he touched the ball just nine times, including four kick-offs.
The Gabonese was eventually taken off at half-time by Lampard in an attempt to salvage an already embarrassing first period for Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium.
Given how frustrating Aubameyang’s time in Stamford Bridge has been, he’s looking to leave the club this summer.
He was quoted by UK Metro recently to have said: “I would like to return to Barcelona but we’ll see”
