El retiro? Inter Miami’s Gonzalo Higuain clarifies “misunderstanding” on future

Higuain’s father, Jorge, gave an interview with TNT Sports in their native Argentina and said, flatly, his son would be retiring after this season.

Then after Tuesday’s training session, Gonzalo was asked directly about that interview and refuted his father’s remarks. He also added that the only source you’ll need to hear from on his future is Gonzalo himself.

“It was a misunderstanding he had with me,” Higuain told media in Spanish. “I never told him I was retiring. He misspoke, and that can happen, but this is very far from reality. I am focused on my club, on fulfilling my contract and when the time comes, if that decision is made, I will be the one communicating it, only me.”
