“I cannot deny that Gonzalo is now close to Arsenal” – Higuain’s brother adm

Gonzalo Higuain’s agent and brother, Nicolas Higuain, has admitted that the striker is very likely to move to Arsenal from Real Madrid.

The 25-year-old announced at the end of last season, that he was ready to move away from the Bernabeu, after six years in Spain, leading to interest from the Gunners and Juventus.

However, Nicolas has confirmed that Juventus have now dropped out of the race, after they signed Carlos Tevez and his brother is heading to the Emirates.

“I think that Higuain is now closer to Arsenal,” he told TMW.

“Juventus are a great club, but Gonzalo is too expensive for them. Napoli are a strong side and that place represents a lot for Argentines.

“Saying that, I can’t deny that Gonzalo is now close to Arsenal.”
