Milan Assistant Coach Casts Doubt on Gonzalo Higuain's Proposed Chelsea Move

Gonzalo Higuain's proposed loan move to Chelsea remains 'up in the air' according to Milan's assistant coach, Luigi Riccio.

The Argentine striker, who is currently on loan at San Siro from Juventus, has been persistently linked with the Blues over the course of the January transfer window, with the 31-year-old's recent absence from the Milan squad during their 2-0 win over Genoa only adding to the assumption that a deal is close.

Despite this however, Riccio, speaking after Milan's 0-2 win over Genoa on Monday, has refused to confirm that the forward's departure from Milan is certain.
