The excerpt from The Spanish Football Podcast:
Sid Lowe: I think Higuain’s a very, very good striker; he went for 38 mil in the end I think it was, wasn’t it? I think he’s somewhere between 25-40 mil Euro striker – I know that’s a big range, but I think that’s more or less the right sort of price for him. Perhaps a tad on the expensive side…
Phil Kitromilides: He scored 107 in 190-odd-games, he’s the first-choice centre forward for Argentina and only 25…
SL: The disappointing thing from Higuain’s point of view was that he didn’t actually get the club that he wanted… [PK: Because he wanted to go to London…] He wanted to go to London, to Arsenal, but Arsenal didn’t force it through and I think he will be genuinely disappointed by that.
But Real Madrid are relatively happy because if he was going to go, they got a good fee for him.
