Chelsea signing Gonzalo Higuain is delighted to be reunited with former Napoli teammate Jorginho.

The pair were part of Maurizio Sarri's successful team at Napoli.

Higuain said, "It was my best year as a player and he's a wonderful midfielder who contributed to that.

"He's also a very good friend of mine so it's a real pleasure to once more be joining up with him, and I hope we can achieve great things together again."

He added: "I've been following Chelsea because I know the coach and I have friends here. Now I've joined the club I'm going to give my all to help Chelsea achieve our objectives."
