Report: Arsenal to sign Gonzalo Higuain

Arsenal are reportedly set to sign Gonzalo Higuain from Napoli after he rejected a new deal with the Italian club.

Arsenal are reportedly ready to sign Gonzalo Higuain after he turned down a new deal at Napoli.

The 27-year-old striker has spent the last two seasons with the Serie A side, but the player's agent confirmed on Tuesday that he has rejected their offer of a new contract.

Argentina international Higuain was tipped to sign for Arsenal before joining Napoli from Real Madrid in 2013.

The Gunners are thought to be in the market for a new frontman and have been linked with Real's Karim Benzema, although a deal now looks unlikely to happen, according to The Metro.

Higuain has scored 53 goals in 102 games for Napoli.
