Chelsea owner Abramovich makes Real Madrid's Higuain priority target
Chelsea boss Andre Villa-Boas WILL bid for Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain in January.
El Confidencial says Villas-Boas attempted to sign the Argentine last summer and he has become a priority target for the Blues manager.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is reluctant to part with Higuain, however Blues owner Roman Abramovich is determined to bring the striker to London and prepared to go as high as €45 million to convince Florentino to sell.
Higuain can also expect a bumper pay-hike, with Abramovich prepared to give him a base salary of €6 million - plus bonuses.

Gonzalo higuain is real madrid...He almost single handedly won the past two titles for madrid and is the most consistent striker .Give higuain a similar salary to benzema coz he deserves it or let him go
Higuain would b far more worst dan torres cuz higuain is a finisher he doesn't av d strenght and d is only to give him passes
if madrid are to sell this guy we are only supporters but he has place in madrid i believe hala madrid
