Higuain becomes fourth highest-paid Chelsea player (See top 5)

Gonzalo Higuain will be become the fourth best-paid player at Chelsea, when he completes a loan move from Juventus this weekend.

The Blues are close to completing a deal to sign the Argentine on an initial six-month loan deal.

The agreement will give Chelsea the option to either buy Higuain next summer, or extend the loan for a further 12 months.

Higuain will earn £170,000 per week at Stamford Bridge.

Only N'Golo Kante (£280,000), Eden Hazard (£200,000) and Kepa Arrizabalaga (£192,000) are paid more in the squad.

Marcos Alonso is on £150,000 a week.
