Higuain the best striker in the world - Nedved

Pavel Nedved feels Gonzalo Higuain is the best striker in the world and is confident the Argentina international will prove to be a shrewd addition. Juventus' director has little doubt that the club's striker will soon become a key figure for the champions.

The reigning Serie A champions spent €90million to lure the prolific attacker away from Napoli, but he has struggled to live up to the high expectations in Turin, despite scoring seven goals in 12 games.

Nevertheless, Nedved, now a director with the club, has little doubt Higuain will soon "explode". "It is never easy for a champion to find your feet at a new club," Nedved was quoted as saying.
