Man United target Aubameyang to leave Dortmund

Man United target Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is currently in the process of leaving Dortmund, according to his international manager Jorge Costa.

When asked about the decision to leave Aubameyang out of his squad for Friday's friendly defeat against Mauritania, the Gabon manager said:

"Aubameyang asked me not to be selected because he is in the process of changing clubs."

The 26 year-old forward enjoyed his most successful season to date at Dortmund, scoring 39 goals in 46 games.

As well as interesting United, he is also thought to be a summer transfer target for Man City and Liverpool, who are managed the man who signed him for Dortmund from Saint-Etienne in 2013, Jurgen Klopp.

Liverpool's failure to qualify for next season's Champions League is likely to hand United and City the upper hand in their pursuit of the striker, as Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola resume rivalries in the Premier League.
