Going into the regular season home finale against D.C. United, Columbus Crew SC fans remained uneasy about the contract status of Federico Higuain.
In August, the playmaker told The Columbus Dispatch that it could be the “end of a cycle” for him after nearly six years in Columbus. Many were confused about the meaning of the cryptic message and some thought the midfielder could be heading out of town.
Following the interview, little was reported on the contract situation and fans didn’t know if the clock was winding down on Higuain’s time with Crew SC.
