Higuain-Alvarez swap deal?

Tuttosport claims the Argentine star could be heading back to River and that Juventus are hoping to make use of the situation, just as they did when Carlos Tevez moved to Boca Juniors in 2015.

Coach Maurizio Sarri brought Higuain back into the mix at the Allianz Stadium this term but his future seems to be elsewhere, and the newspaper claims the Bianconeri are looking at some of the youngsters from River.

Tevez returning to Boca played an important part in securing a transfer for Rodrigo Bentancur two years later. Higuain can be used in a similar way to make sure Juventus pick up the Argentina Under-20 international Julian Alvarez.
