Future Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is seemingly confident of luring Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain to Stamford Bridge this summer. The Argentine has been a consistent performer for the Naples outfit since his move from Real Madrid in 2013.

The Mirror says the Blues have earmarked Higuain as their top priority for the summer following a request from Antonio Conte.

Adding to this, Higuain would be open to a move to the Premier League after he stalled on talks over a contract extension at the Serie A outfit.

Reports elsewhere reveal that Higuain's arrival at the Blues could well pave way for Diego Costa to join a Chinese Super League side.

London rivals Arsenal are also hot on the trail of the South American marksman.
