Gonzalo Higuain is starting to consider a Roma move, according to the Corriere dello Sport, on loan with option to buy at €26m and a reduced Juventus salary.
The striker has been told he is not part of Maurizio Sarri’s plans in Turin after failed loan spells at Milan and Chelsea.
He had been adamant he wouldn’t play for another Italian club other than Juve, but the latest reports suggest he is starting to open up to the idea of a Roma move.

The cost of the operation would be a problem, so the Corriere dello Sport claims the plan is to extend his contract with Juventus and keep the overall wage bill the same, effectively spreading the salary over a longer period.
He could then join Roma on loan with option to buy at €26m – considerably less than the €36m Milan and Chelsea were asked for – and lower wages.
