Reports were legit then:

Ligue 1 - 'Roma meet Aubameyang demands', says father
Roma “are prepared to meet Saint-Etienne’s demands” for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, his father has claimed.

The 23-year-old striker is hot property on the transfer market, as he is wanted by the likes of Manchester City, Tottenham, Borussia Dortmund, Milan, Newcastle United and Fiorentina.

“Roma are prepared to meet Saint-Etienne’s demands, which are between €12m and €15m,” his father and agent Pierre Aubameyang said in Gabon.

He also confirmed talks with Manchester City representative Patrick Vieira and Fiorentina, who offered €10m last week.

Aubameyang is currently the second top scorer in Ligue 1 with 17 goals.

If Roma have captured his signature it makes you think if they have come to terms in losing Lamela, or are they just doing a good job in bolstering their squad?

Will he be considered as a 1st,2nd,3rd or 4th choice striker ?

Probably 3rd choice striker, but because of the dynamic he brings to the squad, he could be playing week in week out, probably not as a striker though, winger more like.

My worry is he's had one decent season in Ligue 1 and everywhere else he's been, he's been pretty pish, Chamakh and Gervinho looked world-beater's in Ligue 1.

To be fair he's only 23 and his last 2 seasons have been pretty good. Not that I've ever seen him play or anything.

According to the Daily Fail his agent/father met with the Swansea chairman, that would be some coup for them.

would be massive for them. they have a knack for scouting out cheap young players

I doubt he'll be that cheap, Aubameyang is a brilliant player and one of the best currently in France, plus very versatile in that he can play on either side and in the middle. A lot of top teams in Europe will be looking at him, and honestly I think he's too good to go to Swansea. It's not like the Michu transfer where Laudrup saw something that others didn't, everyone will know of his quality.

its being reported he is close to a move to newcastle for just under £16million. ive not seen much of him but its not that expensive really, would that be a good deal?
