Chelsea to bid for Gonzalo Higuain in January

Chelsea will bid for Gonzalo Higuain in January. The Argentinian has attracted the attention of many big clubs including Juventus, however it is Chelsea who are looking the favourites to snap the Real Madrid man up.

Higuain is a world class talent who can score goals for fun, and I can see him being welcomed with open arms by the Chelsea faithful.

He would be an ideal replacement for Didier Drogba who is looking extremely likely to be on his way out of the club in January.

Although he wouldn’t be cheap, Higuain would still be value for money.
