Gonzalo Higuain has been left out of AC Milan's squad for their match against Genoa on Monday amid reports of an imminent move to Chelsea.
Coach Gennaro Gattuso had until now said he would continue to call on Higuain as long as he was focused on the game and training well.
It seems as if that is no longer the case, as Pipita was left at home when the team travelled towards Genoa.
Suso returns after he missed the midweek Supercoppa defeat to Juventus through suspension, but Franck Kessie, Alessio Romagnoli and Davide Calabria are all banned.
Mattia Caldara, Jack Bonaventura and Lucas Biglia remain long-term injury absentees.
Milan squad for Genoa:
A Donnarumma, G Donnarumma, Reina; Abate, Conti, Laxalt, Musacchio, Rodriguez, Simic, Strinic, Zapata; Bakayoko, Bertolacci, Mauri, Montolivo, PaquetΓ‘, Torrasi; Borini, Calhanoglu, Castillejo, Cutrone, Suso, Tsadjout

Higuain will just be a replacement for Morata not an upgrade ππππ

He will be flop like Torres and Falcao. 270.000 at week. For that money they could get Icardi and fekir to play for our club. And whit hazard and PULISIC this for players will make assist and goals like nobody in premier league. But this board are so stupid like Sarri to. They sell young players and this who are good and bring old players. Juventus was in final last year in champions league. And they couldn't win it whit Higuan. So it's mean if just Juventus want him why Chelsea bring him. He was not good for Juventus in Italy where they play slow and Italian football. So Sarri think he will be good in England. Hell no. He have forget Chelsea ain't napoli and it's not Italy. It's England the best liga in the world. And he should start to look this big clubs. City, united, Tottenham, arsenal, Liverpool they bay players who are young and build teams for next 3,4 session. And Chelsea og They want to win trophies and make history's they should start to build team for next 5-7season. And start bring players who are young and hungry for goals for wins for trophies and make history's. Players like ICARDI AND FEKIR AND HAZARDS BROTHER. LIKE DYBALA. LIKE RABIOT, VERRATTI. LIKE MAICOM OR DEMBELLE FROM BARCELONA. YOUNG FAST PLAYERS WHO ARE TALENTS. AND FUTURE FOR FOOTBALL. what they do it's crazy. Sell fabregas who is winner of world cup. And bring fat Higuan who Madrid and Juventus wants. Biggest club in the world what him so Chelsea are so crazy to bring that player and pay 270.000 at week. It's so stupid and crazy. I am in shock.!!! π²π²

Reminds me of Dzecko, deal done everything confirmed, terms agreed, player on his way to London. Wake up last few days of the window and find out that Dzecko never wanted to come in the first place...
