Inter Miami has its leading man–at last.
Gonzalo Higuain, the 32-year-old Argentine striker, has signed with the MLS expansion club after reaching terms with Juventus to end his contract with the club a year early, Inter Miami announced on Friday to end a prolonged period of anticipation for his official arrival.
Higuain, whose older brother, Federico, plays for D.C. United, is reportedly signed through the 2022 MLS season, and he becomes the club's third and final Designated Player, joining young Argentine winger Matias Pellegrini and Mexican midfielder Rodolfo Pizarro.
He also joins one of his former Juventus teammates in Florida after French midfielder Blaise Matuidi signed with Miami last month on a free transfer.
