Former Real Madrid and Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain has launched a cheeky jibe at Arsenal after explaining why he never completed a move to north London.
The Argentine forward was regularly linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium during the earlier years of his career with Arsene Wenger thought to be a huge admirer. The legendary Gunners’ boss even confirmed that Higuain was one of the club’s prime targets in the 2013 summer transfer window only to see him move to Serie A club Napoli instead.
Speaking a few months later, he said: "We were working on two or three targets and he [Higuain] was one of them. It didn't come off in the end, that doesn't take anything away from his quality.
