Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri admits he senses a new determination with Gonzalo Higuain.

Higuain arrives at Chelsea after a relatively barren first half of the season at AC Milan, but scored twice on his Stamford Bridge league debut.

"At the moment he is really very determined," reports Sarri.

"In my first season in Naples he arrived later from the Copa America. He missed the penalty in the last match in Serie A and he missed the penalty in the final, but he reacted really very well. He was really very keen and he played an exceptional season. I think he is able react very well to the difficulties.

"He is really very keen so I think he can play very good in the last part of the season."
