Higuain shocked because Barca spent $ 50 million for Lewandowski

"Lewandowski won the Champions League two years ago. He was definitely one of the best strikers in the past 10 years," Higuain said in an interview with Catalunya Radio. "With football today, $ 50 million seems nothing. When I came to Real Madrid in 2006, paying 50 million to a player is impossible. Now that number is light."

Higuain is currently playing in the United States for Inter Miami. They will play a friendly against Barca on the evening of July 19 - the second pre-season friendly of the Nou Camp team.

The Argentine striker initially thought that Lewandowski came to Barca on a free transfer. After the reporters revealed the Spanish club fee paid to Bayern, Higuain was surprised. However, he also said that Barca must have a reason to spend so strong. "When a 34 -year -old player was paid 50 million USD, he certainly had to belong to the superstar. Robert was such a player. He was not only an assassin, but also contributed to the game. I think Robertt Robertt Will suit Barca. Coach Xavi will find a way to promote his ability, "Higuain commented.

Higuian does not think that age will be a burden with Lewandowski at the new club. He took Karim Benzema, another 34 -year -old player, as evidence. Higuain said that Benzema became a Champions League scorer last season with 15 goals showing that Lewandowski could do the same thing at Barca.

Besides, Higuain also gave winged words to coach Xavi: "I think Barca has made great progress since Xavi. They won the most points in the teams in La Liga and won at the Bernabeu. Beautifully engraved under the direction of Xavi and now, after returning the quality contracts, I think they are ready to compete on the titles. Good, I think they have a basis for doing it. "
