“We have asked to make an application to the Court of Appeals over Higuain’s ban,” Mattia Grassani confirmed to ANSA.
“When we have the paperwork we can precisely delineate our defensive strategy.

“We have asked to make an application to the Court of Appeals over Higuain’s ban,” Mattia Grassani confirmed to ANSA.
“When we have the paperwork we can precisely delineate our defensive strategy.
“After we receive the documents we’ll have seven days to appeal, by reading the content of the report.
“The decision on the appeal won’t arrive until the second half of next week, I’d say between Wednesday and Friday.”
That means Higuain will definitely sit out the weekend game against Verona, as he awaits the verdict of the appeal.
