Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's dad calls his Chelsea spell a nightmare and reveals their 'relief' at Marseille move

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's father has described the 34-year-old's time at Chelsea as a 'nightmare' and revealed why his move to Marseille came as a big 'relief'.

Aubameyang sealed his escape from the Premier League giants earlier this month after signing a three-year deal with the French side.

The transfer puts an end to his disappointing spell at Chelsea and his ill-fated return to the Premier League following his previous spell with Arsenal.

Aubameyang's father believes the transfer to Marseille will help resurrect his son's career after a 'nightmare year at Chelsea'.
