Higuain in 'advanced talks' with Arsenal

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Argentine striker Gonzalo Higuain and reportedly, are close to sealing the deal with a reported £22 million transfer on the cards. Higuain’s father, Jorge Higuain has told the media that Arsenal are in advance talks but nothing has been agreed yet. Along with Arsenal, Seria A champions Juventus have also been linked with the 25-year-old.

“Nothing has yet been signed, but I can assure the negotiations between the clubs are at an advanced stage,” Jorge Higuain told La Repubblica.

“We will not agree any contract before the clubs reach a deal on the transfer. I am sure Arsenal made a big offer, as have Juventus,” he added.
