Recently retired Gonzalo Higuain has been awarded one final career honour, as he was voted 'comeback player of the year' in Major League Soccer.
The 34-year-old helped Inter Miami make the MLS Cup play-offs after they made a shaky start, and scored a team-record 16 goals in the process. Higuain missed a large part of their campaign through injury, but returned with an impressive tally of 14 goals in his last 16 regular season matches.
Higuain won the vote after 16.6 percent of players, media and team officials gave him the nod over the rest of the competition. The Argentinian announced before the play-offs that he would retire at the end of the season, but has departed with an extra award after a glamorous career.
