Gonzalo Higuain has completed a Juventus medical in Madrid and will sign for the Italian champions in a stunning €94million deal. Higuain scored a stunning 36 league goals in 2015/16, equalling the Italian record for the most in a top-flight campaign. Juventus, on the brink of selling Paul Pogba to Manchester United for a world-record €120million, have decided they are willing to do so and have agreed a contract worth €8million a year with Higuain. Liverpool, Arsenal and Atletico Madrid had all shown interest in the 28-year-old but Napoli held firm on their valuation and told suitors they would have to activate the striker's €94million release clause. The Argentinean forward will sign a four-year deal that looks set to tighten Juve's grip on Serie A by stripping rivals Napoli of the country's best player last season.
