It looks like AC Milan have signing of Gonzalo Higuain for Juventus as the first images of the striker in the Rossoneri kit have appeared online as fans await official confirmation from the Serie A giants.

The Argentine international, 30, is moving to the San Siro initially on a season-long loan deal that will cost Gennaro Gattuso’s side £16million.

They have also agreed to sign the star permanently for £32.1m next summer.

Higuain is heading to Milan after the arrival of £99million Cristiano Ronaldo in Turin.

He has been told he will no longer be the main man at Juve – despite 55 goals in 105 games for the Old Lady.

The forward arrived to a huge welcoming committee last night as thousands of Milan fans waited to greet their new hero.

Higuain said: “It’s great to see so many fans.

“But I also want to send greetings to those of Juventus who have given me so much affection.

“First I’ll sign and then I’ll talk. I’ll have my medical tomorrow and then I hope to sign.
