Argentine footballer Gonzalo Higuain says he’s rediscovered emotional and inner peace since moving to the US and doesn’t understand why Lionel Messi can’t join.

 

What did Gonzalo Higuain say?

The Inter Miami striker has revealed why he loves MLS so much and can’t see why his Argentina teammate Lionel Messi can’t join him in the US anytime soon. After 13 hugely successful years in European football – with spells taken at Real Madrid, Napoli, Juve, Milan and Chelsea – Argentine footballer Gonzalo Higuain made the decision to join Inter Miami in September 2020. The MLS outfit picked up the striker towards the end of their debut season as a franchise and he has since scored 13 goals in 40 games for the club, finding a more natural work-life balance in the process.

Gonzalo, who played the full 90 minutes of Inter Miami’s 0-0 draw with Chicago Fire on the opening weekend of the 2022 MLS campaign, doesn’t miss the pressure of the European game and says the equipment schedule in America suits him much better. Gonzalo Higuain stated that he had found the emotional and inner peace he had been looking for for a long time. The Argentine footballer has emerged from the European whirlwind. Gonzalo didn’t think he would find himself so good.

Gonzalo Higuain wanted to get back to the feeling he had with the amateurishness of playing in the minor leagues. It’s not just distrust, but envy. According to Gonzalo Higuain, if a journalist is critical, he does it with respect. they always arrive two hours before the game, the daughter can go out with her wife on the field, that there are fewer rules, everything is more natural. Higuain also said that you only play on the weekends, so you can relax during the week. MLS is a very good league to play in and makes them happy even on the pitch.

 

A little about Lionel Messi

There has been speculation that Lionel could soon join Gonzalo at Inter Miami despite being under contract at Paris Saint-Germain until 2023 with an extra year option. The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner has battled for form in Paris this season and has expressed his admiration for MLS in the past. Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas confirmed that the club would try to lure Lionel to the US, saying that Lionel Messi is still one of the best players in the world, his skills have not diminished. Can it happen? Listen, they will push. he is an optimist at heart. Can he see it happening? That’s quite possible.

Gonzalo would welcome the prospect of reuniting with his compatriot in Miami, and sees no reason why he wouldn’t be open to the possibility. Asked about Lionel’s ties to the club, Gonzalo Higuain said the decision is up to Lionel Messi, but he doesn’t see why not.
