Chelsea could face competition from AC Milan in the race to sign Gonzalo Higuain from Juventus this summer.
The Argentina international is expected to be on the move ahead of the upcoming season, with Juve having completed a deal to sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid.
Higuain has been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge as a reunion with former Napoli boss Maurizio Sarri continues to be touted as a genuine possibility this summer.
However, according to fresh claims from Italy, the 30-year-old would be willing to stay in Serie A for the foreseeable future, with a move to Milan emerging as a potential destination.
The Italian giants are in the midst of financial problems, with their ownership structure currently under intense scrutiny.
However, the uncertainty that surrounds Milan as a club does not appear to have deterred its appeal to Higuain, who is weighing up his options ahead of next season.
In order to fund Milan’s potential move for Higuain, it’s believed that the club may look to sell Andre Silva for a substantial fee, with newly-promoted Premier League side Wolves allegedly interested.
