Gonzalo Higuaín's stage in Turin has come to an end. It was a matter of time before the Pipita and the set bianconero They ended up separating their paths, and more so after the meeting between Andrea Pirlo, the new Juventine coach, and Nicolás Higuaín, the player's brother and agent. “Pirlo and the club have made the unilateral decision not to count on Gonzalo for their new project”, were the words of Nicolás. “We have a fantastic relationship with managers and we are sure we will find a solution,” he concluded.

Now, with the departure of Pipita confirmed, Pirlo will be able to focus his efforts on signing his replacement (Luis Suárez, Edin Dzeko and even Álvaro Morata have sounded).
Regarding the new destination of Higuaín, David Beckham's Inter Miami is the loudest outfit and La Gazzetta dello Sport it gives its arrival in the United States as something practically done. There he would meet a Blaise Matuide who has already taken the plane that Gonzalo is expected to take.
