Chelsea boss Mourinho lines up 48 mln-pound bid for ex-Real protegee Higuain

London – Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has reportedly lined up a 48 million-pound bid for Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain.

Napoli signed Higuain from Real only last summer for 34.5 million pounds.

However, the Mirror reports that the Italian side is now said to be considering doing business as it would give them a quick 13.5 million-pound profit.

Higuain previously played under Mourinho’s guidance when they were both at Real Madrid, the report added.
