Arsenal and Man City in pursuit of Argentine Star

Arsenal will reportedly fight if off with Manchester City for the services of Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain in the current transfer window.

The Argentina international had been linked with a switch to the Premier League in the summer of 2013.

Reports reveal that Napoli may be forced to sell their star asset before the conclusion of the winter transfer window due to an ongoing financial crisis at the Naples outfit.

In addition to this, the Gunners are likely to reignite their interest in the talented marksman, with City ready to challenge them for the player's signature.
