St.Etienne Claims That Aubameyang Moved To Germany For Less Than Anzhi, Rubin & Newcastle Offered When Newcastle (and others) were said to be interested in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in January, St.Etienne made clear that the player wouldn’t be moving mid-season but that they had agreed the would do their best to fit in with the striker’s preferences come this summer. It appears that they have been true to their word because it is reported in France today that St.Etienne turned down higher offers from Anzhi, Rubin Kazan and Newcastle United, that that offered by Borussia Dormund.
