Gonzalo Higuain welcomes Messi to MLS

Former Real Madrid and Juventus striker, Gonzalo Higuain, has invited Paris Saint-Germain’s Lionel Messi to one day join him in the Major League Soccer, MLS. Higuain, a fellow compatriot with Messi, played with the seven-time Ballon d’ Or winner in the Argentine national group.

“It is a very important league and it is growing a lot,” Higuain informed Stats Perform, by means of AS.

“Important players are coming and I believe that in the future, it will continue to grow much more.

“I hope [Messi goes to MLS] because it would be an advantage for MLS and for the nation, and if he so wishes, he would have fun and be happy here.”

Higuain signed up with Inter Miami from Juventus in September 2020.

The former Napoli and Chelsea star is currently preparing for his second season in the United States.
