Borussia Dortmund chief Hans-Joachim Watzke has blasted AC Milan for going public with their interest for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Milan officials have confirmed Aubameyang is on their shopping list.
“Given that Aubameyang has made a big contribution to us over the past few years, we decided to give him eight weeks to find a different solution on the market and present us with an offer that would satisfy both our ambitions," Watzke was quoted as saying by Calciomercato.com.
“But now time's up, we have to plan for next season and we want to do it with him.
"Milan? It's not right that their director publicly mentioned [Aubameyang] as a concrete target. I found it disrespectful.
“Now we're ready to give a clear signal. Pierre will stay with us."
