Juventus Morata demands stall Chelsea Higuain swap plans

Chelsea and Juventus are locked in striker swap talks.

Tuttosport says negotiations have been progressing for some weeks as Juve seek Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata in exchange for Gonzalo Higuain.

It's suggested both clubs rate the strikers at €60m each.

However, complicating the situation is Juve's wish to take Morata on an initial loan. They want to pay €15m for a 12-month deal, with the remaining €45m due next summer.

In Chelsea's case, Juve would expect them to cough up a clear €60m for Higuain.
