Sarri open to idea of Higuain stay

"He will stay on. It's hard to adapt to the Premier League, but I think next season he will score a lot of  goals. For a striker this is not easy. I remember that even Suarez at Liverpool only scored three goals during his first season, then 16 and then 24," said the coach in the press room.

In this sense, Marurizio Sarri wanted to show support for the forward that he insisted on signing in January, with Alvaro Morata going the other way and joining Atlético de Madrid. So far though, Higuian has scored 4 goals, with Morata bagging 6 in La Liga.

However, despite the Italian's interest in Higuian, Chelsea currently are unable to sign any players. Although, they do hope to postpone sanction until at least next January, taking advantage of the summer market to prop up a squad that will surely be short of star man Eden Hazard.
