I am not sure though.
To spend 50m, it is okay. No doubt I would prefer Higuain than Giroud also.
You know, with Arsenal’s luck, one injury, and we need to rely on Theo/Asano?
If this is the one major and last transaction that we are going to make, I probably will add a few more millions to snatch him up, but keep Giroud as #2 to compete with him, and use as a rotation/backup.
So if Higuain is injured, we have have Giroud to maintain our usual level.
