Napoli's Radio Station Reveal Higuain Is Off To The Premier League

Huge news is coming out of Italy, today, after Napoli's official club radio station revealed that Gonzalo Higuain is leaving the club to join Arsenal.

Radio Kiss Kiss broke the news about the Argentinean striker's impending departure, claiming that Arsenal will part with 50m euros and Olivier Giroud in order to bring Higuain to the Emirates.

It was believed that Higuain would sign for Juventus, with several reports making the rounds earlier this week that 'The Old Lady' had beaten Arsenal in the race for the former Real Madrid man's signature. However, it would now appear that this is not the case and, after three years of trying, Arsene Wenger will finally get his man.

What do you make of the deal? A good or bad one for the Gunners?
