Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has revealed frustrations over a failed move to Real Madrid in the summer means he no longer dreams of playing for the reigning European champions.
The Gabon international was heavily linked with a move away from Borussia Dortmund during the summer but failed to secure a transfer to Paris Saint-Germain and then Real Madrid.
Aubameyang ended up staying with Dortmund and now the 28-year-old has dramatically revealed he has no more dreams left in football after failing to join Madrid.
“I have no more dreams,” he told RMC Sport. “I will not talk about Real Madrid anymore. I am happy at Borussia Dortmund, I feel like other clubs don’t want to come close to sign me.
“People underestimate me but I will prove my worth. I am frustrated because Dortmund told me I could leave last summer. It didn’t happen and I am disappointed but I am also happy here. It’s not a problem, I’ll keep working hard.”
Aubameyang has established himself as one of the most consistent goalscorers in Europe in the last few seasons and has regularly been linked with big money moves around the world.
In fact, only Robert Lewandowski (66) has scored more Bundesliga goals since August 2015 than Aubameyang (61).
