Argentine Star Higuain Set To Sign For Chelsea

The pair will now be reunited once again as Higuain has reportedly “said yes” to Chelsea’s offer.

The deal could now be finalised “in the coming hours”, as Chelsea are willing to pay Higuain’s salary, as well as a potential €40million (£36m) transfer fee to make the loan move permanent in the summer.

Higuain is currently on loan at AC Milan, but the 31-year-old has struggled for form, with just eight goals in 20 appearances this season.

Higuain’s arrival could also pave the way for Alvaro Morata’s exit at Stamford Bridge. The Spain international’s agent has held talks with Sevilla’s sporting director over a potential return to La Liga on loan.
