Manchester United join Arsenal and Atletico Madrid in chasing Napoli hitman Gonzalo Higuain.
Pipita is by far the Partenopei’s top scorer this season with 27 goals in 57 competitive games.
However, much of his future depends on whether Napoli qualify for the Champions League preliminary round.
The Partenopei need a victory over Lazio tomorrow night to snatch third place, on what will be Rafa Benitez’s last match at the San Paolo before taking over at Real Madrid.

English paper Metro claims Louis van Gaal is very interested in bringing Higuain to Old Trafford this summer and the price-tag is €60m (£42m).
It should be noted that Higuain’s contract has a buy-out clause worth €100m, so if Napoli do not want to sell their star striker, there is no need to release him.
Everything depends on the Champions League, as it’s widely reported the Argentine will push to walk away if they fail to snatch third place from Lazio.
His rapport with the fans and teammates has been breaking down in recent weeks, as Higuain was jeered by the crowd after a substitution.
He was also surprisingly hauled off at half-time in the 3-1 defeat to Juventus.
