Higuain has been on the brink of moving to the Gunners for the best part of a month.
Higuain senior was quoted by Fox Sports Argentina saying: “We have been given permission by Real Madrid to negotiate with Arsenal.
“I will luckily be able to see my son in the Premier League soon.
“There isn’t anything signed yet, but the negotiations are very advanced. We haven’t spoken about the contract yet. Arsenal has made a great offer, in the same way as Juventus.”
