 * “Go back” button already added to every browser and most part of the users know
   how to use it.

 * Do you really think that I would ask that question if I was not serious about
   a client wanting it… not me.
    This client wants it on the top left of their website.

 * You may just add this code for the “go back” button:
 * `<a href="www.mypage.com" onclick="window.history.go(-1); return false;">Go back
   </a>`
 * P.S. And also before adding the code you may also try to explain for the customer
   about the uselessness of the extra navigation element on the page.
