Higuan, the viral photo on social media: “He is unrecognizable”. The ‘transformation’ of the ‘Pipita’ Cast Away version

We see each other again Gonzalo Higuain. And enthusiasts struggle to recognize it. The former striker of Napoli, Juventus and Milan he reappeared on social media, in a selfie with a small fan of his in a sporting goods store in Miami, and many users commented on his physical appearance: “But is it really him?” the comment that bounces most frequently on X.

Higuain was photographed in a tank top, with a full beard and a rather neglected look compared to the golden years spent in Serie A with a cascade of goals scored.

Higuain unrecognizable on social media

The photo of the former Argentine striker, posted on social media by a fan, quickly went viral. Some even write: “But did he star in Cast Away?” (the reference is to the 2000 film starring Tom Hanks, whose protagonist is a computer engineer who survived a plane crash off the coast of a desert island in the Pacific). Someone else added: “It really doesn’t look like him.”
