Borussia Dortmund eyeing Olivier Giroud as replacement for Chelsea-bound Pierre-Emerick AubameyangGOSSIP

Borussia Dortmund are preparing a bid for Arsenal star Olivier Giroud as they look to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang this summer.
Giroud has scored 98 goals in 226 appearances for the Gunners since his debut back in 2012 but the 30-year-old striker is being heavily linked with a move away from the Emirates ahead of the 2017/18 campaign.
The Daily Mirror claim that, with Aubameyang set for a switch to Chelsea in the coming months, Giroud is being eyed as a potential replacement by the Bundesliga giants.
It’s understood Aubameyang has been offered to Antonio Conte this summer for a fee of around £65million.
Speaking at Arsenal’s new kit launch in Sydney on Wednesday, Giroud admitted that leaving the club is a real possibility.
He said: ‘It (leaving) is an option to be honest with you.
‘I’m here in pre-season, I wanted to travel. Some people asked me if I am going to travel or not. I am an Arsenal player and for the moment I am here. I just want to prepare well for the season and we will see later.
‘But it is true that I really enjoyed my five years with Arsenal. I try to be professional. No matter what happens, I did my job on the pitch.’

Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has teased Chelsea that he could be on his way to Stamford Bridge with a cheeky post on Instagram.
The Gabon international is believed to be available for around £60 million, with Dortmund willing to sell if their valuation is met before the start of the season.
He is also being targeted by AC Milan and has offers from China, with Tianjin Quanjian reportedly prepared to offer him a record-breaking salary.
But Chelsea have now emerged as leading candidates for his signature, and Aubameyang posted a picture of himself apparently preparing to jet out on Wednesday.
Even more intriguingly, he captioned the photo with the hashtag ‘#moodoftheday’, which some Chelsea fans believe is linked to his choice of attire.
The 28-year-old was wearing practically all blue – a colour synonymous with the west London club – donning royal blue trainers, a jacket, t-shirt and hat.
Aubameyang’s potential flight does pose several questions, especially given that he should be training with the Dortmund squad.
He took part in their first pre-season friendly of the summer against Rot-Weiss Essen, netting the first goal of new manager Peter Bosz’s reign in charge.
They face Urawa Reds in Saitama, Japan, on Saturday, and it had been suggested that Dortmund had instructed Aubameyang advisors to find him a new club before BVB jetted out to the Far East for the next leg of their pre-season preparations.
Aubameyang scored 31 goals last season, edging out Robert Lewandowski to the Bundesliga golden boot, and also netted seven times in just nine Champions League appearances.
