AC Milan expect Gonzalo Higuain to join Chelsea in the coming weeks, it has been revealed.

Sportmdiaset says Alvaro Morata and Higuain are set for a sensational swap deal - with the Spanish flop all set to join AC Milan.

Chelsea striker Morata has been linked with a January move away from Stamford Bridge, after failing to impress under Maurizio Sarri.

It's suggested AC Milan striker Higuain's departure is 'inevitable' with the deal all but 'agreed'.

They claim Higuain will move on a sixth-month loan to Chelsea, which they could extend if he's a success.

Morata on the other hand will move on an 18-month loan to Milan, cutting out Higuain's parent club Juventus completely.
