Gianluigi Donnarumma Wishes Gonzalo Higuain Luck Ahead of Likely Chelsea Move

AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma has wished forward Gonzalo Higuain all the best, as his reported transfer move to Chelsea grows ever nearer.

The Argentina international did not feature in the 2-0 win over Genoa on Monday, and after the contest the Donnarumma told Sky Italia (h/t Goal's Dan Lewis) he's sure Higuain made his choice for a reason: "If Higuain made this choice, there must be reasons, but he is a friend and I wish him all the best."

It's the latest indication a transfer is all but done and dusted, with reporters from Italy and England adamant an announcement could follow soon.
