Despite the rumours which suggested that Higuain will be parting ways with the Spanish champions, the Argentinean striker is expected to sign a new deal in a few days.
There were rumours which suggested that Gonzalo Higuain might be parting ways from Real Madrid in the near future. However, now the rumours have taken a U-turn and the Argentine is expected to sign a new contract for the club in a few days.
Last season Gonzalo Higuain was able to perform phenomenally; however, Jose Mourinho rarely gave him a change in the first-team.
The Argentinean striker has the best goal-scoring rate for Real Madrid, as he has scored more goals while coming off the bench, as compared to Karim Benzema, who was given more first-team opportunities throughout the season.
Jose Mourinho decided to bench Gonzalo Higuain for most of the games, and brought him on as a power substitute.
The Argentinean star was expected to leave the club since he wanted to join a team where he is given much more time on the pitch and he is also allowed to start more games.
While the rumours spread like wild fire, Jose Mourinho was able to put the whole rumour mill down as he clearly stated that he has a future for Gonzalo Higuain at Real Madrid.
The Real Madrid star was expected to leave the club for the Italian champions, Juventus, who recently won the Scudetto and are recruiting players so that they can compete in the UEFA Champions League next season.
However, Higuain is now expected to stay at the Spanish club and will not be parting ways from the Santiago Bernabeu.
The Argentinean star will be giving direct competition to the Frenchman, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Karim-Benzema-c20350, who was also his rival for the No. 9 position last season.
Many believe that even though Benzema scores fewer goals, his chemistry with the rest of the team is far better than Gonzalo Higuain. Moreover, the Argentinean striker is far better playing as a power substitute, as compared to starting the game for Real Madrid.
Despite all these problems, Higuain will be signing a new deal with the Spanish club and will be getting the same wage package as his fellow striker, Karim Benzema; which is 4.5 million Euros.
