Chelsea have secured two key signings this summer in the form of Radamel Falcao and Asmir Begovic.
However, the mentioned duo have mainly arrived to reinforce Chelsea’s bench and not really the starting lineup. Courtois is Chelsea’s first choice goalkeeper and Costa is their first choice striker.
The Blues need to strengthen their starting XI as well before the transfer window closes and the latest reports in Spain suggest that Mourinho wants to sign a top quality striker.
As per the above given link, manager Jose Mourinho is very keen about signing Napoli star Gonzalo Higuain and has told Chelsea officials to do everything possible to lure the £64m rated Argentine international.
Higuain is a proven goalscorer who has worked under the management of Mourinho during their time with Spanish giants Real Madrid. Express claimed few days back that he wants to leave Napoli this summer.
Last season, the former Los Blancos striker scored 29 goals in 58 appearances for the Serie A side. Mourinho mainly prefers a lone striker formation but if Higuain does arrive, he may have to change the system.
Here is how Chelsea will line up with Gonzalo Higuain.

Higuan does not fit the bill. His strenght is gone, exhorbitant fee for 18 goals, 8 assist being 1st choice and played more games. Why did Chelsea not sign Benteke for £30m. He better than Higuan. Wrong scouting and would be a waste of money.
