Borussia Dortmund striker Aubameyang explains turning down "weird" Tottenham

Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang says he came close to joining Tottenham last year.

The Gabon international has claimed that he rejected the chance to move to White Hart Lane after being left unhappy with how the deal was progressing.

"Tottenham tried to sign me in June 2012," Aubameyang told The Sun.

"But in the end everything became a bit weird. I didn't really like the way things were done.

"So, if Spurs ever came back in for me, I'd say no."
