Javier Pastore: 'Paris-Saint Germain should sign Gonzalo Higuain'

Paris Saint-Germain attacker Javier Pastore has urged the French club to move for Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain.

Pastore, 22, recently returned to action after a spell on the sidelines with a thigh injury, and believes the capital club should be moving for players of the Real Madrid star's calibre.

"I'd like to bring over a player like Higuain. He would be a very important part of our team and could make a big difference in France," Pastore told CNN.

"I have a good relationship with him but we haven't talked. He's at Real Madrid, it's not like he's at a club that's smaller than Paris Saint-Germain."

PSG sit second in Ligue 1, two points behind leaders Montpellier HSC.
