Gonzalo Higuain's Agent Confirms He Wants to Stay at Juventus After Frustrating Chelsea Loan Spell

Gonzalo Higuain's agent has revealed that the Argentine striker is looking to stay put at Juventus, following two largely unsuccessful loan spells at Milan and Chelsea during 2018/19.

Higuain fell down the pecking order at Juventus following the marquee signing of Cristiano Ronaldo last summer, which subsequently led to his departure on loan to Milan.

Poor form and a lack of goals meant that when the January transfer window came around, the 31-year-old was on the move again, this time to Chelsea until the end of the season.

Milan and Chelsea don't appear to be interested in snapping Higuain up on a permanent deal and reports from Italy appeared to suggest that he is favouring a return to Juventus - especially if Maurizio Sarri takes the top job in Turin.
