Many top stars have confronted whistles from the Real Madrid fans throughout the years. And Gonzalo Higuain, now with Juventus, has said he sees the Italian club’s fans to be more patient.
Higuain put in six years at Madrid, showing up before joining Napoli in 2013. He moved to Juve the previous summer for a Serie A record expense of €90 million. And he revealed to Onda Cero: “The fans are not as requesting here as they are at Real Madrid.”
“It’s not in the way of life of a Juventus fan to whistle their own players. Be that as it may, Juve resembles Real Madrid: they are clubs who show you to win.”
