He was pictured receiving the No.9 Juventus jersey.
The transfer of Higuain from Napoli to Juventus has aroused enormous interest in Italy, not only because they are clubs with a historical rivalry, but because his move is already the most expensive in the Serie A at 90 million euros ($98.9 million).
