Chelsea willing to pay £30m for Gonzalo Higuain?

Chelsea are reportedly willing to enter the race for Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain with a £30m bid.

Chelsea have reportedly joined the race to sign Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain this summer.

Higuain has been repeatedly linked with a move away from the Serie A club in recent months, and speculation has grown after they missed out on Champions League qualification.

Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool are all rumoured to be interested in the Argentine, but CalcioMercato claims that Chelsea are considering offering £30m.

Didier Drogba's exit means that Diego Costa and Loic Remy remain the only senior strikers at Stamford Bridge, and Jose Mourinho is believed to be keen to add competition in attack.

Higuain, who has scored 51 goals in 98 games for Napoli, worked with Mourinho at Real Madrid before leaving the club in 2013.
