Higuain glad to leave Chelsea

Cape Town - Gonzalo Higuain is looking forward to reuniting with his Juventus teammates and is not seeking a permanent move to Chelsea.

The Argentina international is back with the Bianconeri following his loan spell with the Blues in the second half of last season, but there has been talk of him moving on again.

Maurizio Sarri is now in charge of the Old Lady and after working together at Chelsea and Napoli, the striker may have been feeling optimistic about his chances of forcing his way back into the Juve side.

Even so, reports in the Italian press claim that Juve officials are keen to move him on if they can find a buyer.

But as far as Higuain’s brother is concerned, the striker is going nowhere, and is ready to fight for his place.

Nicola Higuain took to Twitter on Sunday, claiming: "Gonzalo will only play for Juventus in Italy.

"Two years contract remains and it will be respected."
