After impressing in the Spanish and Italian leagues, the striker would be under immense pressure to deliver in the Premier League as well, especially after knowing about the number 9 curse at Stamford Bridge.

In an interview in September 2018, Sarri admitted that if he is able to get the Argentine fit, he'd be a world-beater.

"He will score goals as long as he lives. He is goals. He is a goal animal, an infernal machine", Sarri said.

With the 31-year-old heading towards the latter stages of his footballing career, it would be unreasonable to expect fancy dribbles and pacy outbursts from the striker, however, his clinical finishing isn't leaving him anytime soon.

With the brilliant midfield, and the likes of Eden Hazard & Willian/Pedro surrounding him, El Pipita needs to focus on finishing rather than creating. Sarri knows how to get the best out of his players, with Jorginho, David Luiz, and Eden Hazard to cement the fact.

It is expected that Higuain will overcome the 'number 9' curse at Stamford Bridge, and would be a lethal striker for Chelsea, just like Diego Costa.
