Old Lady luck
Juventus activated a release clause in Higuain’s contract to sign him for Euros 90million in July 2016, scoring 55 goals in 105 games for the Old Lady. When Cristiano Ronaldo swapped Madrid for Turin, Higuain was the one to depart, on loan to AC Milan. Higuain has scored eight goals in 20 appearances for AC Milan this season – Alvaro Morata has nine Chelsea goals this term – but just one goal in his last 12 appearances.
