Tottenham wants to sign Gonzalo Higuain

Tottenham wants to sign Gonzalo Higuain and Real Madrid aims to address the signing of Gareth Bale, according to what the British press has been publishing in recent weeks. The interests of both clubs this summer intersect and could produce a large-scale operation. Gonzalo Higuain could lower the high claims of the 'Spurs'. Tootenham is asking Real Madrid around 70 million euros by the Welsh player.

Gonzalo Higuain

'The Guardian' takes for granted the leaving of Higuain from Real Madrid and ensures that the player himself has already communicated it to the managers of the club. The Argentine is completing his seventh season at Real Madrid, where he arrived with only 18 years. Higuain's future is not entirely clear. At the end of last season Higuain was about to leave Real Madrid, but eventually 'Pipita' decided to stay. Now, after his erratic season, his fate may be in the Premiership. And Tottenham seems it will play the Champions League next season. A positive fact for Higuain.

On the other hand, Real Madrid has shown interest in signing the Welshman, whose price can vary between 50 and 70 million euros. Gareth Bale is making a fantastic season at Tottenham and has become one of the most coveted pieces of the football market.

Another highlight is the possible signing of Radamel Falcao. Real Madrid wants a striker. Karim Benzema and Gonzalo Higuain have decreased their good scoring numbers of the past season and Mourinho is upset. This could be the final trigger for the move of the Argentine player, who has spent three years fighting with Karim Benzema for a starting lineup place and has not managed to maintain consistency in his performance.

2013: Good start for Real Madrid

Real Madrid is getting numbers of champion in 2013. The setbacks in the early part of the championship do not allow the white team to fight for the League but its numbers elude suspicion of contempt for the Spanish national championship. In fact, after this matchday, Real Madrid is second in the table, surpassing Atletico Madrid for the first time this season, and with better numbers than Barcelona (25 points vs 22). A reaction driven in large part by Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored two victory goals in Vigo.

Real Madrid is living a great 2013

In late 2012 the team of Mourinho, seeing the pace of the leaders and punished for its mistakes, decided to focus hard on the Copa del Rey (Spanish Cup) and the Champions League, and the plan still going smoothly (Cup finalist and Champions League quarterfinalist). But neither neglected the regular tournament. And is that the white team has won 8 out of 10 games (Real Sociedad, Valencia, Getafe, Sevilla, Rayo Vallecano, Deportivo, Barcelona and Celta Vigo) has played in 2013, drawn one (Osasuna) and lost another (Granada).

Celta Vigo 1 - 2 Real Madrid (Spanish League, Day 27)

Real Madrid were far superior to Celta and deservedly came away with the win from the Balaidos stadium, and should have come away with a bigger margin given the number of chances that they created. The crossbar, which Cristiano Ronaldo found with a header, and Javi Varas’ blocks prevented any goals before the break. They all came in the second half. It was the Portuguese who put the Whites ahead by taking advantage of a rebound from a Callejon shot when he beat Javi Varas on the half-turn. Two minutes later the match was once again level. Aspas shot, but the ball deflected off of Pepe and beyond a wrong-footed Diego Lopez. Kaka's introduction in the 66th minute was decisive and five minutes later the Brazilian provoked a clear penalty that Cristiano Ronaldo converted.

In Balaidos Real Madrid were looking to continue their magnificent week in which they qualified for the cup final and the quarter-finals of the Champions League. It was not going to be easy considering that Celta were fighting to get out of the relegation zone and their stadium was filled to capacity for the first time this season. The home side’s bold and aggressive start, with a very high defensive line, was testament to that and they brought the best out of Diego Lopez, who showed the exceptional form that he is in. Aspas shot across the goal in the 10th minute and the visitors’ goalkeeper pushed the ball wide for a corner. The subsequent rehearsed set piece play ended with an Alex Lopez volley from the edge of the area and an amazing full stretch save from the Real Madrid goalkeeper.
