Gonzalo Higuain open to Emirates Stadium switch
Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain says he would be interested in joining Arsenal.
The Argentine striker has been linked with moves to the Gunners and Serie A champions Juventus, after making no secret of his desire to leave the Santiago Bernabeu this summer.
Liverpool and Tottenham are also said to be interested in the Argentina international but Higuain believes a move to the Emirates would ‘suit’ him.
“There have already been offers and I hope that Madrid do the best for me and themselves,” the 25-year-old told the Metro.
“Arsenal? They would suit me, I’m still young and I have goals.
“There are many possibilities. I want to go to a league where I’ll be put to the test.”
Higuain has scored 121 goals in 264 appearances since joining Real from River Plate in 2006, and netted in what is likely to be his final appearance for the club.
Despite struggling for game-time under Jose Mourinho this term, the Argentina international has scored 16 La Liga goals in just 19 starts and also boasts five league assists.
Higuain is valued at around £20m by Real, who are have already compiled a list of replacements including Napoli’s Edinson Cavani and Liverpool’s unsettled striker Luis Suarez.
