Gonzalo Higuain has accepted an offer from Chelsea, where he will rejoin former boss Maurizio Sarri after previously working with the Italian at Napoli.

According to Marca, Higuain’s transfer to Chelsea will be approved in the coming days with Alvaro Morata set to leave the club as the Argentine comes in.

Higuain enjoyed his best run of form under Sarri, scoring 37 goals with the Italian boss prior to moving to Juventus.

Chelsea, who lost 1-0 away to Tottenham in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final, want to revitalise the team mid-season and bringing in Higuain would open the door for Alvaro Morata to leave the club this January.

Milan are willing to let the 31-year-old end his loan spell at the Rossoneri as they are struggling to pay his salary of eight million euros per season, while they are apprehensive about paying the 40 million euro option in the summer; Chelsea are willing to pay both.
