Chelsea news: Gonzalo Higuain says opportunity to work with Maurizio Sarri again was one he could not miss out on
Gonzalo Higuain has said the chance to work with Maurizio Sarri again was too good an opportunity to pass on after signing on loan for Chelsea.Higuain cut his spell atAC Milanshort to finally complete his move to Stamford Bridge on a six-month deal and will earn an incredible 270,000 a week at Stamford Bridge after signing on Wednesday.The striker played under Chelsea boss Sarri while at Napoli during the 2015/16 season, broke the Serie A goal-scoring record with 36 goals that year and expressed his delight at being managed by the Italian again.“It was an opportunity that when it presented itself I couldnt miss out on. Im really excited to be here, to be working with Maurizio Sarri again and to be at a club with so much history,” he told the Chelsea website. “Im just really happy to have completed the move and I hope to achieve all the goals which the club has set for itself between now and the end of the season.”It was the most prolific season of Higuain’s career and the 31-year-old, who has had spells with Real Madrid and Juventus, is keen on a return to emulate that record-breaking campaign.“Maurizio Sarri is the coach who, in my career, has got the best out of me as a player. Hes someone who knew how to work with me, particularly on the emotional side,” he added.“That year together was fantastic and in big parts thanks to him, so coming to work with him is very important for me. Im really happy to have been given the opportunity to do that and I want to get back to that level.Higuain and Sarri at Napoli in 20161

“It was a wonderful season and one in which I broke the goal-scoring record, which is very important out there. It was a fantastic year for myself and Maurizio, and a period which we shared together, even though it was a short time.“Now Im just happy to be working with him again at a big club like Chelsea which has all the history and wonderful team-mates. I think everything is set on the right path to achieve our goals by the end of the season.”Higuain did not sign before Wednesday’s midday deadline and therefore is unavailable to face Tottenham in the League Cup semi-final, second leg.
