Villa target Aubamayeng not for sale says Saint-Etienne

French club Saint-Etienne has made it clear that Pierre-Emerick Aubamayeng is not for sale.

Aston Villa are believed to be showing considerable interest in the 23-year old Gabon international, who has scored eight Ligue 1 goals so far this term, but chairman Bernard Caizzo says he is not leaving the Stade Geoffrey-Guichard.

"For now he is with us," Caizzo told Infosport. "He will stay for at least another couple of years and then we'll see."

Villa boss Paul Lambert is believed to be targeting Aubamayeng to bring to Villa Park to pair with Christian Benteke who has been impressive since joining from Genk.
