Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain has said that he hopes that his fellow Argentinian Lionel Messi is fit for Barcelona in time for Sunday's El Clasico showdown at Camp Nou.
Messi suffered a minor groin strain in Barca's draw against Athletic Bilbao at the weekend and as a result missed their UEFA Champions League triumph over Group F rivals Inter.
"I want the best players play on my team fit, what happens on with Barca is up to them. The important thing for us is to go with all our enthusiasm at Camp Nou. Getting a win there would be a blow to them in the table," Higuain told AS.
"It would be very important because we'd go four points clear of them in the league. Now we must focus on the Champions League [against Zurich] and then we will think about the game against Barcelona." he added before adding that he hopes his countryman plays on Sunday.
"These games are most beautiful when the best players are on pitch. It would be nice if he [Messi] can be on the field."
