Higuain will most likely be playing at the Emirates Cup, but not in the red and white of Arsenal, after passing a medical at Napoli yesterday.
Now the question forming on Gunner’s fans lips is whether latest transfer target Luis Suarez will be playing for the Arsenal at the Emirates Cup?
Is Suarez the better option?
Though Higuain may have now all but joined Napoli, he was well within Arsenal’s grasp. However, Arsenal decided rather than coughing up the cash for the striker to focus their attention on Liverpool forward Suarez.

The sensational transfer of Luis Suárez continues to move closer and closer as Arsenal has triggered a clause in his contract - Suarez is aware of the bid now (legally) and asked Liverpool to allow him to hold talks with Arsenal.
Furthermore, Arsenal and Suarez have already agreed personal terms in principle - a five year deal which would see him net £150k per week.
“He is very much a Liverpool player”
According to Brendan Rodgers, Suárez is still very much a Liverpool player, but I beg to differ.

After Arsenal’s audacious £40,000,001 bid was rejected by Liverpool, it is now up to the Liverpool striker to push his move away from Anfield.
The North London club’s obvious enthusiasm to sign Suarez could be enough for the number 7 to make the switch, giving him a fresh start, a clean slate where he can put his turbulent 2012 behind him and become the Premier League’s top scorer and main man at the Emirates.
Buyout
Contrary to popular belief, the £40million clause in Suarez’s contract WAS NOT an out-and-out release clause. A release clause allows the player to move swiftly and easily should the buying club meet the contractual and financial demands.

Something tells me that Arsenal have taken the statement “anything over £40million will be considered” in the chase for Liverpool’s Luis Suarez.
They went ahead and triggered the clause in Suarez’s contract which states that the Liverpool striker COULD leave if an offer above the £40million mark came in, by offering just £1 over the asking price.
That’s £40,000,001.
Cheeky, but could be effective. Although the clause is not necessarily a release clause, meaning Suarez would be free to move, it does mean that Suarez’s representatives can argue against Liverpool’s judgement and will more than likely open the door for him to leave.

According to Brazilian site O Tempo, Arsenal and Atlético Mineiro have agreed a deal to bring Brazil playmaker Bernard to North London for a fee of around £21m.
This comes after multiple sources, including L’Equipe, claimed yesterday that the Mineiro midfielder would travel to London at the end of the week to complete his medical ahead of a proposed move. However other reports claimed that a decision on the player would only be made after the Copa Libertadores final on Thursday.
As reported on Arsenal Latest yesterday the 20-year-old versatile midfielder has been a target for Tottenham, Shakhtar Donetsk, FC Porto and Borussia Dortmund. But if reports are to be believed Arsenal have beaten their competitors in the race for his signature. Bernard has scored 21 times in nearly 100 appearances for the Brazilian side and now has 5 caps to his name.
