Gonzalo Higuain told me that he is retiring at end of the year, reveals Jorge Higuain

Despite signing for Juventus in 2016, Gonzalo Higuain failed to establish himself as their main striker with consistency evading him. Loan moves to both Chelsea and AC Milan, in the 2018/19 season, didn’t help the forward’s case and it saw him eventually leave the Old Lady in 2020 on a free-transfer, signing for MLS side Inter Miami. However, things with the MLS outfit also haven’t gone ac🌱cording to plan although Higuain has scored 15 goals in 44 appearances for the club.

Yet with the Argentine in the final year of his current contract with Miami, reports have indicated that Higuain has plans of going back to Argentina to see out the remainder of his contract. But that has been refuted by Jorge Higuain, who revealed that the 34-year-old forward will retire once his contract expires in December. Higuain’s father♎ further added that he would love to see his son continue playing and that it would be an insult if he does stop.

"He is not going back to Argentina. H🍌e told me that he is retiring at the end of the year. He is ending this year and is retiring from football. I would love for him to continue to be linked to football after playing. He is a boy who knows a lot, who has played in several places, he has everything to succeed. For me it would be an insult if he does not continue in footba🥀ll,” Higuain told TNT Sports.
