New Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain has been handed the No.9 shirt for the 2016-17 campaign.

Higuain, who joined the Serie A champions in a €90 million deal to become the third most expensive transfer in football history, has been presented to the club's supporters after successfully completing a medical.

And the former Napoli forward has been pictured holding aloft his No.9 shirt, having been given a hero's welcome by Juve fans, with the number previously worn by the likes of Alvaro Morata, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marcelo Salas.
