Chelsea open talks to sign £65m-rated Napoli ace Gonzalo Higuain

 
Chelsea have reportedly opened talks with Napoli over the signing of striker Gonzalo Higuain but the Serie A side are demanding as much as
£65million to sell the forward.
The 28-year-old finished as the top scorer in the Serie A after notching 36 goals in 35 appearances for Maurizio Sarri’s side this term.
The Blues are unable to offer Champions League football next season but Antonio Conte is determined to lure a world class striker to Stamford Bridge as his first signing.
Chelsea officials, according to Squawka, were in contact with Napoli last week to discuss a deal for Higuain.

The Serie A side are reluctant to let the forward go and have demanded in excess of £65m for the Argentine international.
Chelsea had hoped to bag the former Real Madrid striker in a deal closer to £45m but Roman Abramovich has told Conte there’s no limit on his budget this summer.
