Gonzalo Higuain transfer has been one of the main talking points of the window so far but finally seems to be coming to an end.

Juventus Backing Off Higuain

As Arsenal Latest reported Juventus have backed off Higuain, conceding the striker to Arsenal. John Cross of the Mirror claims that Arsenal are aiming to bring the Argentinian striker in before the pre-season tour.

The lack of funds at Juventus could be a major stumbling block for the Italian giants in their pursuit of Higuain, and according to Cross, the leading source of Arsenal news at the Mirror, Jovetic could be heading to Italy, with Higuain making the trip to Arsenal for a fee of around £22 million.

With wages of around £130,000 a week a five year deal matching them wages would be no problem for the Gunners who have a supposed war-chest available to recruit new players.

Higuain Keen On Wenger

The Metro are also speaking about Higuain and his move to Arsenal, claiming the 25 year old has asked his agent to negotiate a deal to Arsenal, despite the interest from Juventus and Atletico Madrid, an unlikely destination due to playing for their local rivals Real Madrid.

The chance of working under Arsene Wenger is a key issue for Higuain and something he is very keen on doing, it seems it could now just be down to Arsenal matching Real Madrid’s valuation and Higuain’s wage demands, which are reported at £150,000 a week.

If Arsene Wenger decides to meet these demands, and he has made it clear Higuain is on his radar, then expect to see the Argentinian leading the front line at the Emirates come next season.
