Higuita made his debut with Deportivo Cali in 2009. A year later, he played a minor part in Cali's campaign winning the 2010 Copa Colombia. In 2011 he made his debut for Cali in Categoría Primera A and during the 2014 season helped the club capture the 2014 Superliga Colombiana.

International
Higuita was called up to represent the Colombia under-20 national team to take part in the 2013 South American Youth Championship[citation needed]. However, suffering an injury prior to the event[citation needed], Higuita only played one match against Chile to 'officially' be part of the squad[citation needed]. Colombia went on to win the event and Higuita earned the silverware for playing at least one match[citation needed].
