Full story: Mail on Sunday
What’s the story? Two things; when were Arsenal out of the race? Lots of Italian media are saying the very opposite about a Napoli bid for Higuain.Does it make sense? No one really knows what’s going on at Arsenal right now. They are spending a lot of time and resource going after Luis Suarez and it means they’ve missed out on Jovetic and got embroiled in this mess with Higuain now too.Is the price right? Yep. How can you complian about paying this for a player who has 107 goals in 187 games for Real Madrid?Will it happen? 3/10 – They’ve been messing about and the early advantage their stability gave them has been completely squandered. If they will pay £35m for the all the nonsense that comes with Suarez why not pay it for the model professional Higuain?
