Gonzalo Higuain to Remain with Real Madrid Next Season

According to the Real Madrid CF webpage, Gonzalo Higuain announced in AS that he intends to remain with Real Madrid. Higuain made his sentiments known just before starting on his first game for Argentina in Copa America.

Higuain had words of praise for Real Madrid, the fans and Jose Mourinho. Higuain said that the fans loved him, Real Madrid is "the best club in the world," and recognized the need to work hard in spite of the best players.

Higuain expressed his gratitude towards Jose Mourinho for allowing him to play for Real Madrid. Higuain also talked about the Copa del Rey and the sense of unity with humility among the squad.

Higuain also expressed hope in remaining at Real Madrid to win more trophies. While Higuain has scored 77 goals within 150 appearances for Real Madrid, Jose Mourinho may have other plans for the Argentine player.

Jose Mourinho has been searching and signing new talents which have placed the future of some squad members in doubt. Mourinho fired Pedro Leon last month while Real Madrid President Florentino Perez purchased the services of Nuri Sahin, Hamit Alintrop and Jose Callejon.

It remains to be seen what will happen to Gonzalo Higuain with the recent changes in the Santiago Bernabeu.
