Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachin Watzke has revealed that the club do not intend to sell striker Pierre Aubameyang in the summer.

Aubameyang spent much of the season as a substitute, but after netting 13 times during his first campaign in Germany, Watzke has questioned why the Gabon international has been linked with a move to Italy.

Watzke is quoted by Sport-Bild as saying: "Why should he be leaving? He has just played here for one season.

"We did not believe that he would be put in the team from the start of every match for our club. We have an immense competition for places in the first team, this was impossible for him.

"We are content with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, he has a contract left at our club."

Roma, Juventus and Inter Milan are all said to be considering a move for the 27-year-old.
