Conte agent talks Juventus trio and Chelsea: Rugani the most likely...

Antonio Conte's agent has questioned Chelsea's move for Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain.

The Argentina international is a target for Conte's replacement at Chelsea, Maurizio Sarri.

But Federico Pastorello told Tuttosport: “I am looking at this situation from an external position," Pastorello told Tuttosport.

“Rugani is a good investment for Chelsea even though I think €50 million is too much.

“Pjanic is one of the best midfielders in the world and I think it'd be a pity to sell him after the arrival of Ronaldo.

“Higuain? It's hard for Chelsea, they already have Giroud and Morata that cost them a lot last summer.

“Maybe Abramovich could make a gift to Sarri but Mrs. Granovsakaia is much more pragmatic than the Chelsea owner and I'd be surprised to see Higuain join Chelsea.

“Maybe he will leave Juve but if he does he could remain in Italy."
