Liverpool are closing in on a £30million move for Napoli star Gonzalo Higuain, according to the Daily Express.

The Argentine international has been consistently linked with a move away from Napoli, and reports suggest he may now get his wish as the Serie A side have wrapped up the £11million signing of Sampdoria frontman Manolo Gabbiadini.

And with Napoli under pressure to comply with the rules of Financial Fair Play, they could offload Higuain six months earlier than planned – with Liverpool registering an interest.

Former Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez prefers to play a 4-2-3-1 system, and with attacking talents such as Jose Callejon, Lorenzo Insigne, Michu, Dries Mertens and Duvan Zupata already on the books, the Spaniard may be willing to sell Higuain to his former club.

Would you like to see Higuain at Liverpool? Do you see any truth behind these rumours? Let us know your thoughts below.

    let the manager leave the team becuz no improvement since been qualified
    for uefa.

  2. Andrew says:

    He has a 100m buyout clause and rejected a move to England to move to Napoli. Higuain won’t ever be joining Liverpool, don’t worry.

    • Andrew says:

      And Napoli aren’t in trouble or even close to trouble with FFP and don’t have to offload him at all. Your English media is clueless.

    When will I stop believing these stories. Keeps shattering my heart.

    • Geoff Price says:

      The most shattering story of all is useless and clueless manager is still in a job. We paid Swansea big money to release him from his contract, what a big mistake that was. Please FSG release this Imposter into obscurity, this really becoming too much to take.

    The only player Liverpool will be signing is “Nobody”.

  7. john says:

    Higuain is far slow and has no movement, has a style similar to lambert , so whats the point in signing him ????

    • Glenneway says:

      Rubbish!!!! How dare you compare Higuain to the Lambert. I guess you started watching football last year eh. Higuain had the drive and experience we need, a maverick in his own way. Just the type of influence the likes of Balotelli need to push him to his best. Besides, we would be lucky to even land his signature after a poor performance in the league.#YNWA

    Bring Rafa back he will attract world class players . He is true Liverpool what Jose is to Chelsea . At least we will be in Champions league lot more .

  9. Glenneway says:

    Also, how come we couldn’t get a player who is on the bench(Shaqiri) and all of a sudden we are in pole position to land a week-in,week-out starter and club’s leading scorer????? Ian Ayre is the one who has to be sacked for not doing enough to sign quality players.

  10. To see is to believe.Lip service is what BR ís good at.

  11. M pleading with our coach to shine his eyes,I think a strong centre back,a strong defender and two good strikers they will take Liverpool somewhere,Henderson need someone like him to hold the centre,make wise decisions please
