Report: Barcelona want Gonzalo Higuain

Barcelona are reportedly interested in signing Napoli forward Gonzalo Higuain this summer.

The Argentine international only moved to Italy from Real Madrid last July and still has four years remaining on his current contract.

However, according to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona have made tentative enquiries about the availability of the 26-year-old, who scored 24 times for Napoli last season.

Higuain enjoys a strong relationship with international teammate Lionel Messi, and Barca are reportedly confident of turning the striker's head.

The attacker scored 122 times in 264 games for Real Madrid before leaving the Spanish capital last summer.
