Gonzalo Higuain has agreed terms with Arsenal ahead of the striker’s club record £22 million move to The Emirates, according to several reports.
The Guardian claims the 25-year-old will receive £130,000-a-week on a four-year deal, while the Daily Mail suggests the Real Madrid striker will pocket in the region of £150,000-a-week.
Higuain has been told he is free to leave the Bernabeu after seven years at the La Liga club.
Arsenal and Juventus were linked with a move for the Argentine, with the Serie A side believed to be frontrunners for his signature. However, they abruptly dropped their interest in Higuain and are now, reportedly, focused on signing Carlos Tevez, leaving The Gunners free to snap up the Real ace.
Arsenal have been keeping tabs on Higuain since 2004 when he was at River Plate. But it was Real Madrid who signed him in 2006.
But it seems Arsene Wenger has finally landed his man for a bulky £22 million.
Hopefully these reports hold some truth. If so, we have done some good business here.
Hopefully there will be more on the way.
Higuain netted 16 goals in 28 La Liga appearances last season.

Higuain will not stop Mickey Mouse goals being scored against us at the other end of the pitch. If we had Ronaldo, David Villa, Lewansowski and Higuain we still wouldn’t win anything. Not with comedians in the defence and between the posts.
There was only one team that conceded less than us so I think your being a bit harsh. The defence had improved a lot and will continue to do so. And having a great striker up front along with a few more hopefully, we should be challenging next year.
your photo says it go away spur lover
Remain felleini and yayasonago, Roney,
Higuain is a step closer to a better Arsenal,nxt step Defense and Midfield!!!!Go Gunners!!!!!
No one who comments here can spell or formulate a sentence. We all want him to sign…but he hasn’t yet so chill out and be patient. Ps the guy talking about the defence is a moron, second best defence in the epl. That is all
