Higuain's father admits interest by Arsenal and Juventus

Ever since Real president Florentino Perez made it clear that Gonzalo Higuain was free to leave the club, the striker has been linked to a number of clubs, including some of the top clubs across Europe.

It is believed that Arsene Wenger has met Higuain and his father Jorge, who is also the Argentine’s agent.

Jorge Higuain said: “Madrid will want to sell. Juventus or Arsenal? I guess he has spoken with them. The clubs first have to talk to Madrid and in direct negotiation. Higuain currently has three years left on his contract.”

Earlier this week, Higuain had himself admitted the Arsenal interest as the 25-year-old said: “Arsenal? They would suit me. I’m still young and I have goals.”

Gonzalo Higuain scored 16 goals for Real Madrid last season and Arsenal will have to pay around £20m if they wish to sign the striker.
