3 things that could happen when Gonzalo Higuain joins Chelsea

#2 Hazard's return to the creative role from left-hand side

Eden Hazard

Maurizio Sarri has preferred Hazard as a false nine in the recent weeks due to the lack of high-calibre displays from Morata and Giroud. It ultimately cost the 28-year-old Belgian his role from the left flank.

But now, with a proven goalscorer in Higuain set to join Chelsea, Hazard could be back to the creative role from the left. The Belgian would have a task on hand similar to one he had when Diego Costa was his team-mate.

Surely, the Hazard-Higuain duo would be fascinating to watch and could help the Blues to secure a spot in top four this campaign.

#3 AC Milan to Sign Krzysztof Piatek

Higuain's move away from Milan would result into opening up of space for the role of a goalscorer in AC Milan's XI. Reports emerged that Genoa's new goalscoring cameo Krzysztof Piatek is being eyed by the Rossoneri.

Since arriving at Genoa, Piatek has been in flying clours having scored 19 goals in all competitions so far this season. The 23-year-old forward boats an immense attacking skill set and is tipped to fill the void left by Higuain's departure.
