Getting closer

Hi,
Quite a bit going on regarding transfer news today.
Starting with Ancelotti signing a three-year deal with Real Madrid. Quite to what extent it may or may not influence Higuain`s transfer remains to be seen, but, ultimately, the Galacticos now don`t have even a formal reason to stall the negotiations.
Higuain`s brother, who is, at the same time, his agent, confirmed once more, that Arsenal have made an offer for the Argentine, while also saying the Gunners are now favourites to win Gonzalo`s  signature. Juve (having announced Tevez arrival) seem to have lost interest in another striker. Maybe, they can no longer afford so marquee a signing. Napoli also popped up as a potential destination, but I am inclined to think it was only added to the mix heat things up. As far as I know, no offer has been made by Italians. So it looks like La Liga forward is inching ever closer to joining us. Arsenal being Arsenal, of course, one can never be quite sure, how all this will end, but things are looking good for now. Fingers crossed this one can go through.
