Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has received an offer to play for Los Angeles FC.
The 33-year-old tried to leave Chelsea in January but FIFA rules stopped him from doing so.
Having already registered for two clubs this season, he would not be allowed to join a third, but a loophole in the rules would allow him to make the switch to LAFC.
The MLS club are looking to replace Gareth Bale who retired last month and are now targeting the Blues forward.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang still needs to be convinced about a move to Los Angeles FC, according to Standard Sport
The striker believes he is still capable of playing at the highest level.
However, a loophole in FIFA rules would allow him to play in the MLS, with their new 2023 campaign set to commence later this month.
Auba is looking for an exit from Stamford Bridge having been left disappointed following his omission from the Blues’ Champions League squad.
He was also left out of their squad for their Premier League goalless draw with Fulham last Friday.
