Chelsea 'willing to sell Olivier Giroud, Alvaro Morata'

A report claims that Chelsea will look to offload Olivier Giroud and Alvaro Morata as they want Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain to lead their line next season.

New Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri will reportedly attempt to offload Olivier Giroud and Alvaro Morata to fund a move for Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain.

The Blues are said to have prioritised bringing in a prolific goalscorer for the 2018-19 campaign and believe that Higuain fits the bill.

Giroud is seen as disposable, according to The Sun, while Morata may be used as part of a player-plus-cash transfer that will see Higuain move the opposite way.

Juve will apparently be open to business as they need to recoup a chunk of the £100m splashed out to sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid this week.

Higuain scored 36 goals in 35 league games under Sarri at Napoli in 2015-16, before moving to Serie A title rivals Juventus.
