In 2013, Higuaín joined Serie A club Napoli in a transfer worth approximately €40 million. He made an immediate impact, debuting with a strong performance in a victory over Bologna. Although the club faced early setbacks, including group-stage elimination in European competition, Higuaín continued to deliver standout displays.
He registered his first career hat-trick and was instrumental in guiding Napoli to the Coppa Italia title in 2014, as well as the Supercoppa Italiana the same year. Over three seasons, he became Napoli’s go-to goal-scorer and, in the 2015–2016 season, equaled the Serie A goal-scoring record with 36 goals—a remarkable achievement that further elevated his status in world football.
In 2016, Higuaín transferred to Juventus for €90 million, one of the highest fees ever paid for a footballer at the time. Despite the pressure from such a high-profile move, he thrived in Turin, quickly becoming one of the team’s standout performers.
During the 2016–2017 season, Higuaín earned multiple Man of the Match honors for his consistent and versatile striking abilities. He played a key role in helping Juventus secure the Serie A title and reach the UEFA Champions League final. His playing style, marked by strategic positioning and clinical finishing, reinforced his place among Europe’s top strikers.
