Morinho Could be a Key Factor as Napoli Legend Claims Gonzalo Higuain Has Received Eye-watering Offer from Manchester United

Former Real Madrid striker and Napoli star player Gonzalo Higuain who is now a key figure in AS Napoli has been linked with different clubs and there is possibility of him moving to one of the EPL giants this summer, most especially Manchester United considering the fact that he played under new United manager Morinho.

Gonzalo Higuain has reportedly received a firm offer to join Manchester United this summer. The Argentine international has been strongly linked with a move away from Napoli in recent months and club legend Jose Alberti says Higuain has received proposals from the Old Trafford club and Paris Saint-Germain.

Alberti suggested both cash-rich clubs have offered the former Real Madrid man an eye-watering sum of money to make the switch this summer. However, he hopes the 28-year-old centre-forward opts to stay with the Italians.

"As a Napoli fan I hope Higuain remains because the Blues could win the championship with him," Alberti said, according to CalcioMercatoWeb. "PSG and Manchester United have a lot of money and with the offers made by these teams we should make him a statue if it decides to stay in Naples."

Alberti said it is important Napoli resist United's offer as they aim to compete with the top teams in Serie A. "The team of Maurizio Sarri next year will have to at least try to confirm second place although I think all the rest of Serie A will also reinforce," he explained.
