Gonzalo Higuain |
Chelsea’s new signing,
Gonzalo Higuain has said that he can’t wait to link up with his former Napoli
teammate, Jorginho.
Higuain stated this shortly after he signed for Chelsea from
Juventus on Wednesday.
The 31-year-old joined
Chelsea on a six-month loan deal, with an option for the West London club to
buy him for £32.5million in the summer.
“It was my best year as a player and Jorginho is a wonderful
midfielder who contributed to that,” Higuain told Chelsea’s official website.
“He’s also a very good
friend of mine so it’s a real pleasure to once more be joining up with him, and
I hope we can achieve great things together again.
“It was a wonderful season
and one in which I broke the goal-scoring record, which is very important out
there.
“It was a fantastic year for myself and Maurizio, and a period
which we shared together, even though it was a short time.
“Now I’m just happy to be
working with him again at a big club like Chelsea which has all the history and
wonderful teammates.
“I think everything is set
on the right path to achieve our goals by the end of the season,” he said.
Higuain is expected to
feature for Maurizio Sarri’s side when they tackle Bournemouth in the Premier
League fixture on Wednesday.
