Higuain arrived at the "La Madonnina" clinic on Thursday morning to undergo medical tests with Milan

Gonzalo 'Pipita' Higuaín was treated to a hero's welcome outside the 'La Madonnina' clinic this morning. The Argentinian, already wearing AC Milan's shirt, is arguably one of the Italian giants biggest signings in recent years.

After weeks of turmoil due to the club owners' financial issues, ones which almost kicking them out of the Europa League, things are now beginning to look up after Elliot took over at Milan.

Higuaín arrives at Milan along with central defender Mattia Caldara as Leonardo Bonucci goes the other way and returns to Juventus. Milan will pay Juve €18m for the striker, initially on loan, before making his move permanent for €36m next year.

The Argentine forward, who has been a regular goalscorer at Juventus and former club Napoli, arrives as Milan look to add much needed experience to their squad.

Higuain, once he's completed his medical, will travel to the United States to begin the season alongside his new teammates and could make his debut against another of his former clubs, Real Madrid, on the 11th August.
