What really impresses me is that he's equally good with both feet. Seems to prefer finishing with his left, but there are some really good finishes with his right in these vids, and you can also see that he uses both feet for ball-control, dribbling and passing. Must be a defender's worst nightmare.

Capello: 'Juve, buy Higuain'
By Football Italia staff


Fabio Capello has advised Juventus to make a move for Real Madrid’s Gonzalo Higuain. “He is world class and works really hard for the team.”

The Bianconeri have stated they want a new striker and the Argentine is one of the top candidates.

“Gonzalo is a player who works really hard for the team,” former Real Madrid and England manager Capello told Tuttosport.

“He doesn’t just sit there and wait for the ball. He goes looking for it, comes back deep and allows others to push up into space, harassing defenders when they have the ball.

“As for when he’s in the box, there’s no doubt he is very talented and few have the same eye for goal as he does. He is world class.”

Capello knows Higuain well, as he brought him to Madrid in January 2007.

“In terms of character he is also a good lad. He works hard and does not have a bad attitude. In his first season in Europe with me, he was always among the first to turn up to training and gave 100 per cent to find his space in the side despite the very tough competition.

He is a defender's worst nightmare for his movement. He stays on their shoulder and times runs very well, gets into good areas. That would be a huge asset in this Juventus that likes to play passes over the defense.

Marotta and Paratici are gonna have to engage in some serious sweet-talk to land him, though. He would want certain guarantees, and I also think they're gonna offer him the no. 10 shirt. As well as the highest salary at the club, of course.

He wears #20 and #9 for Real Madrid and Argentina respectively. Both available :tup:

Edit: well, Padoin needs a new number.
