Chelsea reportedly have ‘no intention’ of keeping Gonzalo Higuain, whom Juventus could now offer to Inter for Mauro Icardi.
Tuttomercatoweb claims Chelsea have been put off by Higuain’s ‘bad performances’ since arriving in January.
The Blues had options to buy the striker or extend his loan by another season, but they are currently appealing a transfer ban, while he has scored just four goals in 14 appearances.
The website explains this is a problem for Juve, who will be lumbered with his €9.5m salary again in the summer.
However, a solution could lie with Inter as they may include him in possible negotiations for Icardi.
On the other hand, TMW warns the Nerazzurri are not interested in the 31-year-old, having already rejected him last summer, when the Old Lady included him in a 55m offer.

Sending him back to where he is not wanted might leave him depressed as he is still battling with the loss of his mother. We should at least keep him till middle of the next season.

Higuain is better than giroud and that is true Higuain has very poor performance he has failed to do what we were expecting from him therefore both Higuain and Giroud must go

Higuain is no more, like that time is very weak and too slow. just look to that guy replace him at AC Milan he is scoring every game. Chelsea must buy that striker for Ivory coast is very good in attacking.

let him leave and call Morata back. I wonder why no one is talking about him, I think is doing better in Atletico. I rate him over this granddaddy called Higuain

I said this and will continue saying it again.till Chelsea go back for a Spanish striker ...no one may fit into their attacking style...Diego costa was very good...same as Torres...you then went in for young Morata and you left him just because of this old man(Higuian)...how?...What Chelsea can do now is to bring back Morata from loan and keep him...he will be better next season and he can fit into the upcoming team they may form with their young talents.🙌🏾..THANK YOU

Chelsea as a big club is not serious at all including sarri as a coach...we as a fun talk about this higuain transfer that he is not the higuain he use to be when he was in Napoli but the club and coach didn't hear to our cry and they go for him when they have the chance to sign a top talented young striker like piatek or Icardi at that Time and now you are here to send him back again and even inter is rejecting him....Chelsea as club is not serious in the market like before under marisia or whatever they called her and now you have been band from the market as well..

There are things to consider. 1. Hes old now. Wrong time to buy him, if we got him 3/4 years ago it would have been an amazing deal. 2. The service any striker gets at Chelsea is poor since no one but Hazard and Odoi can put in a decent ball in. 3. He just came in January, not enough time to adjust to a league where there is a difference in tempo.

he is a good player he needs time to adapt to English football. Coming from Spain where it's mostly tactical he needs to understand the power game of English football..Chelsea should have him time.

It’s always hard when you are 31 years of age to adapt into a league like premier league especially when you’re playing for a club like Chelsea nonetheless i wish him good luck on his new journey.
