Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is convinced Chelsea are trying to get rid of him after he was dropped from their Champions League squad.

The forward is 'shocked and disappointed' that he was omitted from the group for the knockout stages, according to The Telegraph. He may have flown straight to Milan after getting the news and there is said to be a belief that he is being forced out of the club. He was left out of Friday night's Premier League draw with Fulham altogether.

Three new January signings, Enzo Fernandez, Mykhailo Mudryk and Joao Felix, were registered in the Champions League squad ahead of him.

Explaining the decision to leave Aubameyang out of the squad, Potter said: "He was the one that missed out, he's done nothing wrong at all. Whichever decision there was always going to be a debate. It was my decision, a tough decision.
