Called to be the figure and franchise player of the nascent MLS club Inter Miami, the Argentine Gonzalo Higuaín has disappointed with his performance the last two seasons.

The team from the East Coast of the United States has not been able to transcend or be noticed in North American football despite having the “Pipita” leading the attack.

The former Real Madrid, Napoli and Juventus player himself, among others, knows that his performance has not been as expected for what the board of directors chaired by David Beckham aspires to, so he did not hide his rejection of what he has given the club and was radically self-critical in his last press conference.

Higuaín was committed not only to his performance but also to that of the rest of his teammates. He assures that his mind is focused on qualifying for the playoffs.

“This year I am going to be a bit of a bastard, in the sense that if I I break the fret I want the others too”

“Last year, not being at 100%, I was able to put 12 goals and 10 assists, this year I think that with a focused head I can do improve the numbers and help the team qualify for the Playoffs. I feel better physically, I am free of the head. I have very good feelings that it is going to be a great year”.

Higuain’s leadership at Inter

In addition to Frenchman Blaise Matuidi, Argentinean Gonzalo Higuaín is the player with the most experience in elite football

present at Inter, as evidenced by his track record: up to 14 Titles adorn his hall of medals.

But what the striker was most criticized for last season was his lack of leadership on the pitch, despite the fact that the coaching staff and players delegated the weight of being the captain to him.

This aspect was not left out in the talk he had with journalists this Tuesday 18 of January and remarked that he is a leader “more of facts” and not of “many words”, making clear the hunger that the MLS tournament begins to redeem itself with the ever-expanding The fans of Inter Miami.
