“We have permission to negotiate with Arsenal” – Higuain’s father confirms G

Gonzalo Higuain’s father and agent, Jorge Higuain, has confirmed to Madrid-based newspaper Marca, that Real Madrid have agreed a fee with Arsenal and give him permission to seal the deal.

“We do not negotiate with any club without permission of the selling club,” he said.

“We have permission [from Madrid] and hopefully we can soon see my son in the Premier League.”

Arsenal fans have been in panic, as the Argentine striker’s move to the Emirates seemed to be taking a long time, especially with Manchester City and Chelsea looking to bring in forwards.

Arsene Wenger has already landed French youngster Yaya Sanogo, but is looking to bring in big names this summer, with Marouane Fellaini, Wayne Rooney and Julio Cesar all linked to the Gunners.
