Meanwhile, there are strong reports Higuain will be at the Dimaro training camp this evening.
He was not due to return from his post-Copa America vacation until next week and was expected to simply meet up with the squad in Naples.
The striker hopes this will be a gesture of good faith to start the new season on the right foot.
It has been a tense few weeks for Pipita, who got into a brawl with a fan who insulted him in Ibiza.
