When Federico Higuain went down with an ACL injury during a 3-2 loss to the Colorado Rapids on May 25, many feared it was the last sight of the maestro in a Crew jersey. On Monday afternoon, their suspicions were proven correct as the club announced the midfielder was out of contract and not set to rejoin the club.
Massive Report’s Patrick Murphy reports the club extended an offer to the 34-year-old playmaker to take a different role within the club, but Higuain wishes to continue with his playing career next season.
When the news surfaced of Pipa’s departure, fans took to social media to express their appreciation for his eight years of service to the club utilizing #ThankYouPipa.
