Gonzalo Higuain:
Conte is a huge fan of playing two strikers up front. Chelsea have been playing with a single striker formation for quite some seasons now. With Diego Costa up front, Chelsea need another quality striker to partner him. Also with Costa’s history with injury, Conte needs a striker who can lead the attack in his absence and maybe provide a tip or two to other strikers like Remy and Traore. There in comes the name of Gonzalo Higuain. The man who is currently a star player for Italian side Napoli.
Gonzalo Higuaín, in the Italian Serie A, has scored 26 goals this season, and registered two assists. Last season season he scored 18 goals and created 48 chances in total. The year before he scored 17 goals and created 25 chances. Scoring goals and creating chances just doesn’t seem to be the Argentine’s problem. With other EPL clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal also on the Frenchman’s trail, Conte should waste no time and snap up the prolific striker as soon as he takes over at Chelsea.
