The Argentinian seems set to be Premier League's flop of the season. His loan transfer may not cost Chelsea a penny but, his mammoth £270,000 a week wage will surely be a pain in the chest. The 31-year-old has even made Chelsea's striker crisis worse as he has only scored against Premier League rock-bottoms.

Higuain had everything to be Chelsea's most promising saviour before he arrived at the Bridge. He had plenty of working experiences with Sarri at Napoli and a reputation as one of the most prolific strikers in Serie A. Hence, perhaps no one had predicted that the Argentinian would turn into such flop.

The former Real Madrid star is now 31 years old and Chelsea surely would not want him to stay beyond this season if his nightmarish displays continue.
