Former Livorno striker Igor Protti says AC Milan should snub any swap offer from Chelsea for Gonzalo Higuain.

Chelsea are ready to propose Alvaro Morata to Milan for Higuain, who is on-loan from Juventus.

But Protti told RMC: "The exchange Higuain-Morata? Sarri had Higuain in Naples and he knows what he can give him, maybe if there was an exchange, nobody would be sorry, the operation could be successful.

"But I would not deprive myself of Higuain who certainly did less than expected but let's not forget one of the strongest strikers in the world, he suffered a lot from the wrong penalty against Juventus, he was very keen in that game, but from the realisation point of view Higuain is a guarantee."
