Yeah it would be foolish. Higgy is going to score 35 to 40 this season I hope. If we sold him we might be able to to win serie A if mandzukic is healthy all year but I don't think by much. CL would be early elimination.
He was brought in for his volume of goals and I think he will keep it up for many years. People are over critical of his shape last summer. A club like juve will keep an asset like him in top shape.

The other day I took my son to the Juve friendly against PSG. He is only 5 years old but is already following the team. Higuain is his favorite player! All the kids in his kindergarten class talk about Curry, Brady, and Harper. Not my little prince tho. He can't get enough of Dybala and Higuain.
The game was entertaining! It was his first professional footie game and one of many more to come. Juventus won a tight game and with a goal from Higuain of all people! Thankfully one of my friends had backstage passes so we were able to go to the locker room and meet the players. Higuain was the one we were after.
There he was, still in his kit and talking to Dybala about something. It seemed like a serious matter. But as soon as my son and I approached, his face lit up and he greeted us as if he knew who we were! Little Benny ran up to Higuain and his eyes lit up. He started bombarding him with questions! Surprisingly, Higuain spoke English very well. South Americans usually tend to lack in that area.
"Relax, Ben!" - I said assertively "One more question for Mr.Higuain and then we have to go. The players need to leave soon."
"Okay, fine daaad" said the little one with a sigh. "Higgy!" he says exitedly "what's your favorite animal??"
"Haha" I laugh " He's been watching a lot of animal planet documentaries lately" I explain to Higuain.
"Oh, it's fine" says Higuain. And without missing a beat answers: "The pig"
Ben just looks at him. I start to think. Higuain might be much smarter than he looks! "Gonzalo, that's very interesting" I said " Is it because the pig has received a lot of praise lately for being one of the smartest and most compassionate species on Earth? A study actually placed them second behind chimps!"

Higuain looked at me with a wry smile as if he knew something I did not. "No, my clever friend" he laughed "It is because of bacon!"
