Higuain not for sale —Juve boss

Juventus sporting director, Fabio Paratici has quashed talk Gonzalo Higuain could join Chelsea by insisting he’ll remain at AC Milan.

The Juventus striker, is currently on loan at Milan and he will stay there for the second half of the season, according to Paratici.

Chelsea are keen to add Higuain to their forward line because of concerns over Olivier Giroud and, in particular, Alvaro Morata and they have been strongly linked with the Argentine frontman, who thrived under the management of Blues boss Maurizio Sarri when they worked together at Napoli.

Milan are keen to keep the 31-year-old, who has netted six times in 15 Serie A appearances this season, and he now looks likely to stay at San Siro for at least the next six months.

“He remains one of the best strikers in the world – he showed it in these seasons in Europe, he scored everywhere,’ Paratici is quoted as saying by the London Evening Standard.

“About his future, I think he’s important for AC Milan, he’s a great striker and they want to keep him.

“I know very well Gonzalo, he is a simple and passionate guy who lives every situation with great enthusiasm. It can happen even to the best players not to score for four or five games.”
