Gonzalo’s Higuain’s agent has dispelled any rumours of him leaving Juventus for Chelsea, insisting “I see no real chance of leaving.”
Il Pipa has been linked with a move away from Turin and a possible reunion with former Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri at Chelsea, should he take the managers role there.
Speaking about the reports in the press, and the Juve links with Cristiano Ronaldo, Higuain’s brother (and agent) reiterated Pipita’s desire to stay in Turin.
“We don’t know anything yet. He was teammates with Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid, but they haven’t spoken about it. It would be fantastic obviously, especially if he made a strike partnership with Gonzalo,” Nicolas Higuain told Sky Sport Italia.
“They know each other so well, as they played about 80 games together. If Juve can do it, this will be fantastic, just spectacular. It’s hardly new for them to work together.
“At the moment we haven’t spoken to any other clubs, as we have a three-year contract with Juventus. He is very happy in the city, at the club, with the Coach and the tactical system.
“All these things people talked about other clubs are just rumours, we haven’t spoken to anybody. At the moment, he has three years on his contract with Juventus.
“Everyone knows his rapport with Sarri is wonderful and he sees him as a football father, but as far as I know, Sarri hasn’t even signed for Chelsea yet. Secondly, Gonzalo is happy in Turin and hasn’t received any indication from Juve, so I see no real chance of leaving.
“Clashes with Allegri? I heard about some argument in the locker room, but there’s a code of football, it all stays in the locker room, so he hasn’t told me anything.”
