Wilshere confirm Higuain's move to the Emirates on Twitter

The internet and social media sites were awash with speculation last night that Jack Wilshere had confirmed Gonzalo Higuain’s arrival at Arsenal after following the Argentinean on Twitter!

Higuain has been one of the “almost on the verge” of joining arsenal and completing his protracted move to the Emirates for what feels like forever now. Almost as much as Yann M’Vila was last summer, but still we await any official news from Arsenal or Real Madrid.

So you could forgive some Gooners for getting a little over excited when they noticed that young Jack Wilshere had followed Higuain last night on Twitter.

Comments like “we’re definitely buying Higuain, Wilshere just followed him!“. has make this sound true. Jumping the gun a little but when you’re waiting for a record signing to be announced, fans can sometimes look into things way to much.

Of course there is a small chance that Jack knows something we don’t and prematurely followed his soon-to-be new team-mate, but I still think that’s highly unlikely.

Wilshere’s ‘Twitter-gate’ came just hours after ESPN published an interview with him where he was asked about the prospect of Higuain joining the club, and he seemed excited by the idea and had some changing room banter already lined up.
