Juventus Reach Agreement to Sign Arsenal Target Gonzalo Higuain

Italian giants enter chase for Real Madrid striker.

Italian news source La Repubblica reports that Juventus are now favourites to sign Gonzalo Higuain from under the noses of Arsenal.

The Argentine striker has been put up for sale by Real Madrid this summer, and Arsenal were told to pay around £22million to bring him to the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners are known to be on the lookout for a striker in this transfer window, as the likes of Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud have not quite helped fill the void left by Robin van Persie.

Higuain is said to be a main target, though Arsenal have also had their eye on Stevan Jovetic of Fiorentina, who may be available for cheaper, at around £15million.

Juventus have also shown an interest in Jovetic, though Fiorentina’s reluctance to sell to another Serie A club has seen the Italian champions make their move for Higuain instead.

The talented finisher has 120 goals for the Bernebeu club in 264 appearances, but has fallen down the pecking order this season and could make way as the club look to reel in bigger targets, such as Tottenham’s Gareth Bale.
