Chelsea considering Costa replacement

 

Chelsea will look to Gonzalo Higuain if they sell Diego Costa at the end of the season, according to Spanish website Fichajes.net. 

 

Costa has been strongly linked with a return to Atletico Madrid in the summer, with it thought the Blues would be willing to cash in on the Spain international despite his recent good form. 

 

If Chelsea indeed opt to sell Costa in the summer, the Blues will look to Higuain as their next main striker.

The Argentine has been in flying form for Napoli this season, netting more goals (24) than any other player in Europe’s top five leagues. 

 

Napoli would be keen to retain the services of the experienced striker as he continues to fire in goals that could land the club's first Scudetto since 1990.
