Chelsea managed to bring in Gabonese striker Aubameyang in the last minute of the transfer window. The shot-stopper suffered an unfortunate injury when robbers entered his house not long ago, damaging his jaw and leaving his comeback time a mystery. However, coach Doue revealed that the club is customizing a special mask for him in anticipation of his early return to action. It is reported that he may be able to wear the "mysterious mask" in the UEFA Europa League match in the early hours of next Wednesday (7)!

Chelsea beat Westham in Saturday's (3) Premier League match, and Aubameyang was there to cheer on his rookie teammates in great spirits. On the timing of his comeback, Doue said, "We are trying to get him to play in a mask, but the details depend on the experts who make the masks and how Aubameyang adapts. He could be back this Wednesday (away to Dinamo Zagreb), if it's too early he could face Fulham, or another week's delay is possible."
