Chelsea boss Mourinho makes Higuain January priority

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is ready to sell one of his strikers to make room for Napoli star Gonzalo Higuain. The Daily Star says while money isn't really an object for Chelsea, Mourinho can raise funds by getting rid of two of his flop strikers, Fernando Torres and Demba Ba.

Higuain has scored 13 times in 21 games this season, the same amount as the Blues' three strikers have mustered in a combined total of 49 appearances.

Jose Mourinho managed Higuain during his time as Real Madrid boss and it's a factor which could help them win any race to sign the forward.
