Arsenal target happy with Madrid for the time being
Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain says he is fully focused on the club despite reports linking him with a move to Arsenal, according to the Marca.
The Gunners are on the look out for a new striker this summer and the Argentina ace along with Barcelona striker David Villa are said to be on Arsene Wenger’s list of targets.
Higuain has struggled to establish himself in the Real side this season due to niggling injuries and the form of Karim Benzema but he has still managed to ship in with five goals in the last six games.
There have been suggestions Higuain could head to the Premier League in the summer with the Gunners and Tottenham both keen, but the player says he is staying focused on Real for now.
“I’m not going to talk about that now,” the striker revealed. “I can only say that I’m committed to the club and will help the team until the end of the season.”
Whether Arsenal could conclude a deal remains to be seen as the transfer fee coupled with the player’s wages would mean Wenger having to break the bank to land him.
