Gonzalo Higuain came as a free player to Inter Miami and David Beckham, Inter Miami's deu, offered him a salary of 8 million dollars a year for two years. As soon as Higuain received that offer, I do not doubt it and stop all the illusions that River Plate fans had of seeing their idol again with their club's shirt.

River fans dreamed of seeing Higuain back at the club, but Inter Miami with its economic might convinced Higuain. Since then, River Plate fans began to call Higuain a "mercenary" since he decided for money and not for the love of the club. Fans believe it was the last chance to see Higuain back in Argentina.

Of course, Higuain's salary was not going to be anywhere near what David Beckham pays him at Inter Miami since Argentina does not have so much money to invest in a player. But the situation of Higuain having been free in Juventus, made anyone dream of a great gesture from the forward wanting to return.

Higuain played all his youth divisions and then made his first team debut. In River Plate he was an idol of the people until now that made some fans angry with him. Higauin in River had a great goal average since in 33 games he scored 15 goals. After River, Higuain went to Real Madrid and after there the story is already known.
