Former Real Madrid striker Predrag Mijatovic feels that his old club may rue the sale of Gonzalo Higuain as goalscorers are hard to come by in the game.

Former Real Madrid striker Predrag Mijatovic believes that the Spanish side will regret selling Gonzalo Higuain to Napoli.

The Argentina international completed his move to the Serie A side last week for a fee in the region of £32m on five-year deal.

Mijatovic told Cadena COPE: "When Real Madrid purchased Higuain, he was seen as a kid with great talent. He was settled in Spain and did well in Spanish football.

"He was key to winning the league title under [Fabio] Capello and has grown a lot at Madrid. It is not easy to find a player that scores 25-30 goals a season."

The 25-year-old scored 18 goals in 41 appearances for Madrid last season.
