Juventus boss Andrea Pirlo had already confirmed that Gonzalo Higuain will leave Juventus this summer.
Andrea Pirlo became Juventus manager replacing Maurizio Sarri after their defeat in the Champions League quarter-final against Lyon. Pirlo has decided to release some of the players from his project. Blaise Matuidi has already left the club for MLS side Inter Miami.
In a press interview Pirlo said: “We’ve decided together with Gonzalo Higuaín that he will leave the club this summer. He’s out of the project and we’re ready to let him go. Gonzalo has given so much but the story must close.”.
Gonzalo Higuain joined Juventus in 2016 after a fantastic spell with Napoli. But it didn’t work so well for him. In his four seasons at Turin, he was sent on loan to Chelsea and AC Milan.
Now, he is set to join MLS side Inter Miami.

Gonzalo Higuain will follow the footsteps of his Juventus teammate Matuidi and join David Beckham’s MLS side, Inter Miami. He has now signed the contract and will join them for free.
Higuain made 149 appearances for Juventus and has scored 66 goals. Last season under Maurizio Sarri he has scored only 11 goals in his 43 games. It is quite natural that he is not in the plan of Juventus’s new manager.
