Have you heard of an amazing player in Real Madrid that keeps scoring and is slowing become an huge star in Spain? No, it’s not Ronaldo or Kaka, but River’s Gonzalo Higuain. The “Pipita”, as know in Argentina, has been linked with a spot in the “Seleccion” of Diego Maradona. Rumor has it that he will be called to play against Ghana in a friendly in Cordoba.
Gonzalo stated to Del Plata station, “I wish I get called. It’s a dream that I have been seeking for a long time.” Many have wondered why this top goal-scorer was let go to Real Madrid at such a young age and so fast, but the reality of River’s need for money came into play. He started playing under coach Leonardo Astrada in 2005, and slowly become a staple in the offensive rotation.
We wish you the best of luck, Gonzalo!
