It's the right time to sell Higuain from a financial pov. We can't afford to let every top player retire here. We sold players in their late 20s/early 30s in 90s and 80s too.
But from a sporting pov, can't think of a better or as good an alternative to Pipita in the market. Likely, we've to revisit the question of selling Higuain again next year.
And he finally got in shape. Couldn't get in shape for us in two years but managed to right before the WC lol. That's why he has been lacking in energy lately. You don't have any when you're cutting. He might have his best season with us next year unless he gains weight again after the WC.
