#3 Chelsea re-ignite interest in Higuain

Gonzalo Higuain

Maurizio Sarri seems to be a big fan of his former Napoli player Gonzalo Higuain as the Blues boss has not relented in his pursuit of the Argentine striker.

Marca are reporting that Chelsea have agreed personal terms with the former Real Madrid striker, who is currently on loan at AC Milan from Juventus. The Argentinian has scored 8 goals in 20 appearances for Milan this season, and his nowhere near the form that he was in with Juventus and Napoli in the last few seasons.

Milan could have bought Higuain for €36 million at the end of his loan contract.

#4 Icardi fined for missing training

Mauro Icardi

Mauro Icardi is another player that is rumoured to be on Chelsea's wishlist, and the latest decision by Inter Milan could maybe sway the Argentine's decision to leave the club.

Icardi and Inter haven't agreed on a new contract, while the Argentine's late return from Argentina caused him to miss a training session which led to him being fined, as per Tuttosport. We reported yesterday about how Icardi was handpicked by Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich to be the Blues' next striker.
