Thomas Tuchel is looking forward to working with Aubameyang, who he feels is not concerned with the so-called 'curse'
"Auba is not afraid of the past and what a number means," Tuchel said, as per Sky Sports News.
"He is ready to fight to create his own history, taking the number nine means he is brave enough.
"Auba from my point of view has always been happy to fight for something and to accept the challenge, so the more challenges he has the better it is."
