Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that it is not possible for the Stamford Bridge outfit to sign Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain.

The Blues had been linked with a £50m move for the former Real Madrid forward, but Mourinho has admitted that the Serie A side wouldn't be interested in selling the Argentine.

The 50-year-old told reporters: "Gonzalo Higuain is a player that I know, but we cannot get.

"Napoli want to win the Scudetto, they want to win the Europa League. I don't believe that they are interested in selling Higuain."

The 26-year-old has scored 13 times in 21 appearances since moving to Italy in the summer.
