Chelsea make £88m bid for Higuain and £65m bid for Aubameyang

In one of the biggest stories of the day, Tuttosport (via The Metro) has reported that Chelsea have made a whopping £88m bid for Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain. The Argentinian has been in top form in the last two seasons and hence Chelsea are bound to have their bid rejected. At 29, Higuain doesn’t look like the long term replacement that Antonio Conte’s side need.

Chelsea have also been linked with Borussia Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Daily Mirror are reporting that Chelsea are very close to securing the services of the striker for a fee of £65m.

Chelsea have also been linked with Real Madrid's Alvaro Morata after seeing Romelu Lukaku move to Manchester United.

Sky sources report that Liverpool are ready to make a fresh offer in the region £65 million to sign Naby Keita. The Anfield outfit have had one of their earlier bids worth £57m rejected recently by RB Leipzig who are determined to keep the Guinea international.

Sky sources also claim that Liverpool are closing in on Hull's 23-year-old left-back, Andy Robertson. The deal will reportedly cost Liverpool around £8m. Jurgen Klopp wants to bring in a left-back to provide competition for an ageing James Milner who was playing on the left flank for almost the entirety of last season.
